Preserving Pure Silk Heritage
With proper care, a pure silk saree retains its sheen and structural strength for decades, becoming a cherished family heirloom.
Key Preservation Rules:
- Storage: Wrap silk sarees in clean, breathable unbleached cotton or muslin cloth. Avoid plastic covers.
- Refolding: Periodically unfold and refold your sarees along new crease lines every 3 to 4 months to prevent thread strain.
- Washing: Always prefer dry cleaning for heavy zari and Pattu sarees.
