A silk saree is a treasure, and preserving its beauty requires careful maintenance. With the right storage and handling, your saree can remain flawless for decades.
Always fold your silk sarees with the zari facing inward to prevent wear. Store them in muslin or cotton cloth, never in plastic, as silk needs to breathe. Avoid hanging silk sarees for long periods, as it may cause stretching.
Keep sarees in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight to prevent color fading. It’s best to refold them every 3–4 months to avoid permanent creases. If your saree has zari, change its folding pattern often to maintain its shine.
For washing, dry cleaning is always recommended. Avoid strong detergents or machine washes as they can damage the delicate fibers. In case of stains, address them immediately with professional help.
With these steps, your silk sarees will remain as radiant as the day you bought them—ready to be passed down as heirlooms filled with memories and love.
