Care Instructions
To preserve the deep maroon pigment and the brilliance of the gold zari:
-
Washing: A gentle hand wash in cold water with a mild detergent is highly recommended. Wash separately to maintain the intensity of the maroon dye.
-
Drying: Air dry in a shaded, well-ventilated area. Avoid direct sunlight to prevent the vibrant color from fading.
-
Ironing: Use a medium-heat setting and iron on the reverse side of the gold zari stripes to protect their metallic luster.
