Fabric Care & Preservation

A little care goes a long way in preserving the beauty of your saree.

Cleaning

  • Dry Cleaning: Professional dry cleaning is recommended for delicate silk, organza, tissue and handloom sarees.
  • Washing: Avoid machine washing, soaking or harsh detergents.


Handling

  • Delicate Fabrics: Handle organza, tissue and fine handloom weaves gently. Avoid pulling, tugging or rough handling.
  • Pins & Accessories: Avoid sharp pins and excessive pinning on delicate fabrics.


Blouse Stitching

  • Fit: Avoid tight blouse stitching, especially with tissue and linen fabrics, as it can stress the weave and cause damage.
  • Lining: Use double lining with 2x2 cotton fabric for better support and durability.


Protection

  • Perspiration: Use sweat pads to protect delicate fabrics from perspiration.
  • Perfume & Chemicals: Avoid spraying perfume, deodorant or other chemicals directly onto the saree.
  • Ironing: Use low heat and a protective cloth. Avoid direct high heat on zari, embroidery and delicate fabrics.


Storage

  • Storage: Store in clean, dry, breathable cotton or muslin covers. Avoid prolonged storage in plastic.
  • Folding: Refold periodically and avoid storing sarees in damp or humid spaces.


Good to Know

  • Natural Weaves: Minor variations in texture, weave and finish are natural characteristics of handloom and natural fabrics.

Handle with love. Preserve for generations.

Timeless weaves. Stories to cherish.
