Saree Care Guide

Sri Nandini Silks | Hunsur

Every saree is not just fabric — it is heritage woven with time, artistry, and emotion. To preserve its timeless beauty, we recommend treating each piece with refined care.

Silk Sarees

The essence of royalty and tradition

Silk sarees deserve the gentlest touch, as their natural sheen is a reflection of centuries-old craftsmanship.

  • We recommend professional dry cleaning only
  • Avoid frequent cleaning to preserve natural luster
  • Store wrapped in pure cotton or muslin fabric
  • Keep away from moisture, heat, and direct sunlight
  • Re-fold occasionally to maintain fabric integrity
  • Use natural repellents like neem or silica to protect heritage weaves

Cotton Sarees

Breathable elegance rooted in everyday grace

Cotton sarees embody comfort and culture, growing more beautiful with mindful care.

  • Gentle hand wash separately in cold water
  • Use only mild, non-chemical detergents
  • Avoid soaking for extended periods
  • Dry in natural shade to retain softness and color depth
  • Light starching may be used to enhance crispness
  • Iron while slightly damp for a refined finish

Contemporary Sarees

Delicate and graceful, these fabrics require a soft, attentive approach.

  • Gentle hand wash or delicate machine cycle preferred
  • Use mild liquid cleansers only

  • Dry in shade on a flat surface or hanger
  • Iron at low to medium heat with care
  • Avoid harsh chemicals and bleaching agents
