Care Instructions;
1. Dry Clean Recommended: To preserve the intricate embroidery, mirror work, and natural dyes, professional dry cleaning is the safest option.
2. Gentle Hand Wash (if necessary): Use cold water and a mild, pH-neutral detergent. Do not scrub or wring the shawl; gently swish it in the water. Rinse thoroughly and lay flat to dry in the shade.
3. Avoid Machine Washing: The delicate embroidery and mirror work can be damaged in a washing machine.
4. Iron with Care: If needed, use a warm iron on the reverse side of the shawl, placing a thin cotton cloth between the iron and the fabric to avoid direct contact with the embroidery or mirrors.
5. Store Properly: Keep the shawl in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent fading. Fold it neatly and store it in a breathable cotton bag or wrap it in muslin fabric to protect against dust and moths.
6. Avoid Harsh Chemicals: Do not use bleach or strong stain removers, as these can damage the natural dyes and embroidery.
7. Handle with Care: Be mindful of snagging the delicate embroidery or mirror work on sharp objects or jewelry.
