Wash & Fabric Care Instructions First Wash: Dry Clean Only is highly recommended for the first 1–2 washes to preserve the vibrancy of the dyes and the fine zari threadwork. Subsequent Care (If Washing at Home): Hand wash gently in cold water using a mild silk-safe/delicate detergent or liquid soap. Do not soak for more than 5 minutes. Do not wring, twist, or scrub the saree or zari border forcefully. Gently squeeze out excess water and lay flat or line dry in a shaded area away from direct sunlight to prevent color fading. 5. Ironing & Storage Guidelines Ironing: Always iron on a low-to-medium heat setting (Silk/Cotton mode). Iron on the reverse side of the fabric, or use a thin cotton press cloth placed over the saree to protect the delicate zari work from direct heat. Avoid using heavy steam directly on the metallic zari threads. Storage: Store in a breathable cotton saree cover or muslin cloth (avoid plastic bags). Refold the saree every 2–3 months to avoid permanent creasing along the folds or stress on the zari threads.
