Saree Care Guide

Every Rasavarna saree is handwoven over several days by skilled artisans using traditional techniques and the finest silk. With thoughtful care, your saree will continue to retain its beauty, texture, and elegance for generations to come.

Allow your saree to breathe after every wear before folding it back into storage. Avoid wearing the same silk saree on consecutive days, as natural fibers benefit from resting between uses.

Keep sharp jewellery, rough surfaces, and accessories away from delicate zari and silk to prevent accidental pulls or snags.

We recommend professional dry cleaning only, especially after the first few wears.

Avoid machine washing, soaking, or using harsh detergents, bleach, or stain removers, as these may damage the silk fibers and dull the zari.

For minor stains, gently blot the affected area with a soft dry cloth and consult a professional silk cleaner.

Iron only on a low silk setting.

Always place a soft cotton or muslin cloth between the iron and the saree to protect the delicate weave and zari work.

Avoid direct steam on zari borders.

Fold your saree neatly along its natural creases and store it in a breathable muslin or cotton bag.

Keep it away from direct sunlight, humidity, and moisture to preserve its original colour and sheen.

Refold your saree every few months to avoid permanent crease lines along the same folds.

Zari is delicate and should be handled with care. Avoid spraying perfumes or deodorants directly onto the saree, as alcohol-based products may affect the metallic threads over time. When storing, ensure the zari is not pressed tightly under heavy garments.

Carry your saree in a breathable garment pouch rather than plastic covers. If packing in luggage, place a soft cotton cloth between folded layers to minimize friction and preserve the weave.

If you own heirloom silk sarees, unfold and refold them every 4-6 months. This simple practice helps maintain the fabric's natural drape and prevents stress along permanent fold lines.
