Vibrant Multi-Color Borders: The "Kara" (border) is reimagined with a bold, rhythmic arrangement of stripes:
-
Primary Tones: Thick bands of vibrant orange and royal purple create a striking, high-contrast frame.

Metallic Accents: Slimmer gold-toned stripes run through the colored bands, adding a touch of traditional shimmer.

Care Instructions
To maintain the crispness of the fabric and the vibrancy of the multi-colored stripes:
-
Washing: A gentle hand wash in cold water with mild detergent is recommended. Wash separately to ensure the purple and orange dyes do not bleed onto the off-white body.
-
Drying: Air dry in a shaded area. Avoid direct sunlight to prevent the colors from fading over time.
-
Ironing: Use a medium-to-high heat setting while the fabric is slightly damp for a smooth, traditional finish.
