Care Instructions
To preserve the luxurious feel of the Unakkapavu cotton and the shimmer of the gold zari:
-
Washing: A gentle hand wash in cold water using a mild liquid detergent is highly recommended. Wash separately to preserve the clarity of the ivory base.
-
Drying: Air dry in a shaded, well-ventilated area. Avoid direct sunlight to prevent yellowing and to protect the vibrant zari.
-
Ironing: Use a low-to-medium heat setting. Always iron on the reverse side of the gold zari to protect its metallic finish.
