Wash Care Guidelines:
- We advise you to read the wash care instructions carefully before buying the fabric. In case the textiles are fashioned into a stitched garment or go through any modification like stitching, embroidery, dyeing, printing and more, we will not be accountable for any color bleed.
- All Sarees, Unstitched sets, Dupattas, Stoles/Scarves are recommended for Dry clean only.
- Fabrics and Products that fall under the cottage and handloom industry carry certain irregularities that only adds to the beauty of the textiles. No standard norms or parameters are followed during the production and hence, we recommend our clients to handle these fabrics with extra care. Kindly go through our wash care guide for more details.
- All fabrics and textile products crafted by the artisans and weavers of India are recommended for dry clean only. There are no standard norms for producing such fabrics and we do not have control over the manufacturing process of the same. Since they are made using natural dyes by the seasoned hands of the artisans, some irregularities may occur.
- Generally, all non-silk fabrics which are mill dyed/yarn dyed can be home washed in soft detergents.
- All piece dyed fabrics that are not mill dyed but bucket dyed are recommended for dry clean only.
Kindly Note:
- We try to be as specific as possible for washing care of each fabric but looking at the product from where it originates and the large collection of fabrics and textile products that we carry, it may not be possible to be specific to each fabric or textile product.
- Wash care instructions given on our website against each product and fabric is general instruction. Claims can not be entertained if such instructions are found not to be followed.
- At times, it is difficult to establish the fact whether such wash care instructions have been followed by the client or not. We generally do not entertain any claims on color bleeding and other things unless it is proven that proper wash care instructions have been followed. Hence, such claims may take their own time to be handled anywhere between 15-30 days.
