Care Instructions
The beauty of this handloom replica lies in its resilience and ease of maintenance:
-
Washing: Gentle hand wash in cold water with a mild detergent is recommended. To maintain the intensity of the orange and purple dyes, avoid soaking for long periods.
-
Drying: Always dry in the shade to protect the vibrant colors and to keep the ivory fabric bright.
-
Ironing: Use a medium-heat steam iron to achieve that signature crisp Kerala look. Iron on the reverse side of the gold zari for a long-lasting shine.
