Kalamkari Cotton Saree – Care Instructions

First Wash (Highly Recommended):
- Dry Clean Only for the first wash to preserve natural dyes and prevent color bleeding.
Subsequent Washes:
- Use mild, pH-neutral detergents or a natural soap like reetha or soapnut.
- Wash separately in cold water to avoid color transfer.
- Do not soak the saree for long periods.
- Prefer gentle hand wash; avoid using a washing machine.
Drying:
- Dry in shade only, preferably on a flat surface.
- Avoid direct sunlight, as it can fade the natural vegetable dyes.
Ironing:
- Use a medium to low heat setting when ironing.
- Always iron on the reverse side to protect the hand-printed design.

- Store in a cool, dry place, ideally wrapped in a muslin or cotton cloth.
