Learn how to replace a broken URBINO cookie jar lid. This guide covers measuring, choosing the right replacement, and fitting tips for KPM Berlin porcelain lids.
Quick answer
To replace a broken URBINO Keksdose Deckel, measure the opening of your cookie jar, choose the matching URBINO lid (first or second sorting), and fit it gently with a slight twist to ensure a secure seal.
Why choosing the right sorting matters
KPM Berlin offers the URBINO Keksdose Deckel in two production series. The II. Sortierung (second sorting) is a high-quality lid designed for URBINO cookie jars from the second series, while the standard URBINO Deckel is the matching lid for the original URBINO jar. Both provide a snug closure, but the fit may vary slightly between series.
If you are unsure which series your jar belongs to, check the base of the jar for markings or compare the design details with the catalog images. Choosing the wrong series could lead to an imperfect fit, so it's worth confirming before you order.
Step-by-step replacement process
- Measure the jar opening: Use a ruler or measuring tape to measure the inner diameter of the cookie jar opening. Note the measurement in millimeters. This is critical to ensure you select a lid that fits snugly. A lid that is too small will not seal; one that is too large will not sit flush.
- Identify the production series: Check the bottom of your jar for any markings or compare the design with the URBINO collection images. Determine whether it is from the first or second production series. Matching the series ensures the best fit and avoids returns.
- Choose the correct replacement lid: Based on your measurements and series identification, select the URBINO Keksdose Deckel (standard) or the II. Sortierung version. Verify the price and availability on the product page. If in doubt, contact KPM Berlin customer service with your jar's details.
- Fit the lid gently: Place the new lid on the jar opening and apply gentle, even pressure. Twist slightly to seat it properly. Do not force it—porcelain can chip if handled roughly. A proper fit should feel snug but not require excessive force.
- Care for your new lid: Hand wash the lid with mild soap and warm water. Avoid abrasive sponges and sudden temperature changes to prevent cracking or crazing. Regular care extends the life of your porcelain lid and keeps it looking pristine.
