Handloom & Silk Disclaimers
 
Handloom Characteristics: Being a genuine handwoven pure silk textile, natural variations in weave texture, subtle thread slubs, or minor pinholes along the selvedge and motifs may occur. These characteristics highlight its unique, handmade origin.
 
Pure Silk & Minakari Care: To preserve the brilliance of the raw silk texture, vibrant Minakari threadwork, and zari weaving, this garment must be Dry Cleaned Only. Store wrapped in a soft, breathable cotton cloth in a cool, dry place. Keep away from direct perfumes or moisture.
 
Color Accuracy: Digital image shades may differ slightly from the actual product due to studio photo lighting conditions and individual computer or phone screen calibrations. Please note that purple colors, in particular, may have natural shade variations, which are strictly not considered a defect. Handcrafted textiles may also feature unique, subtle variations in weave, texture, or pattern, which are inherent to the authentic handloom process and add to their distinct character.
