FAQ
Why purchase a Virebent piece ?
Virebent pieces are made from a natural ceramic paste and covered in an enamel with inorganic colouring agents. They are the fruit of a specific expertise, which is recognised by the Living Heritage Enterprise label and certified as being of Guaranteed French Origin.
Are there any precautions to be taken before first use ?
No, our products don’t require any special preparation, however it is recommended that you wash them before use.
Why use crockery made of stoneware and/or porcelain ?
Because these clays are very hardwearing. They gently and evenly diffuse the heat in your preparations. They also retain the heat for a long time. Virebent dishes do not release any kind of harmful substances throughout their lifespan.

Can one prepare a dish in the oven and then freeze it ?
