Care Guide
Sarees are made to endure — but like all textiles, they benefit from attentive care.
Proper storage, handling, and cleaning preserve both fabric integrity and colour over time.
Storage
- Store sarees in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight.
- Refold periodically to prevent permanent creasing along one line.
- Use breathable cotton or muslin covers rather than plastic.
- Avoid hanging heavy silk sarees for extended periods.
Cleaning
- Dry clean only, unless otherwise specified.
- Avoid frequent washing to preserve fabric structure and zari work.
- Inform your dry cleaner of delicate elements such as handwoven silk or metallic threads.
Handling & Wearing
- Avoid direct contact with perfume or deodorant on the fabric.
- Take care when pinning to prevent tears in delicate weaves.
- After wearing, allow the saree to air before storing.
Preserving for Generations
With thoughtful care, a saree can be worn, restored, and passed forward across generations.
Maintenance is not merely preservation — it is continuity.
