Styling Tip: Pair these sarees with a matching blouse in one of the border’s secondary colors (like brick red, brown, or green) to highlight the vibrancy.

Care Instructions
To maintain the natural fibers and the brilliance of the colored borders:
-
Washing: A gentle hand wash in cold water with a mild detergent is recommended. Wash separately to ensure the deep pigments do not bleed onto the ivory fabric.
-
Drying: Air dry in a shaded, well-ventilated area. Avoid direct sunlight to keep the ivory from yellowing and the colors from fading.
-
Ironing: Use a medium-to-high heat setting while the fabric is slightly damp to achieve a sharp, crisp finish. Iron on the reverse side of the gold zari to preserve its metallic luster.
