Dry Cleaning (Preferred):

– It is highly recommended to dry clean pure silk sarees to prevent damage or shrinkage.

– Professional dry cleaners are experienced in handling delicate fabrics like silk and will ensure proper cleaning without harming the saree.

Avoid Soaking:

– Do not soak the saree, as this can cause the silk fibers to weaken and lose their luster.

Avoid Harsh Chemicals:

– Avoid using harsh chemicals, bleach, or strong detergents that can damage the silk fibers.

Ironing:

– Use a low-heat setting on the iron to avoid damaging the silk fibers. It's best to iron the saree inside out or place a thin cotton cloth over the saree while ironing to protect it.

Storage:

– Store the saree in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent color fading.

– Avoid hanging the saree for an extended period, as it can lead to stretching. Instead, fold it and store it in a muslin or cotton cloth.

Handling:

– Be gentle while handling the saree, especially the delicate borders and embellishments
