Care Instructions
To preserve the natural cotton fibers and the brilliance of the green and gold detailing:
-
Washing: A gentle hand wash in cold water with a mild detergent is recommended. Wash separately to ensure the green pigments do not bleed onto the ivory fabric.
-
Drying: Air dry in a shaded, well-ventilated area. Avoid direct sunlight to prevent the ivory from yellowing and the green 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 maintain its metallic brilliance.
