This bread warmer features a whitewashed terracotta stone, beautifully incised with a weave design. The stone is oven-safe, and this item is a favorite of many customers. Keep bread, rolls, muffins, or tortillas toasty with this charming warmer- an ideal gift for any occasion. Before first use, rinse the warmer and air-dry it. Preheat the oven to 350F and put the stone in for 10 minutes; do not put the basket in. Carefully remove the stone and place it in the basket. Wrap food in a towel and place on the warmer for optimal results. Clean the warmer with water, not a dishwasher. Kaisa grass, a sturdy wild grass, dries from its natural light green to a pale almost tan color and is harvested from riverbanks during monsoon season with the roots left for re-growth. Bangladeshi women craft these. Dimensions approximately 3"h x 12"L
