Our Top Care Tips

Delicate Washing

Preserve the quality of your handwoven textiles by hand washing them in cold water with mild detergent. Avoid bleach or harsh chemicals that can fade colors and weaken fibers.

Air Dry Naturally

After washing, lay your textile flat or hang it in a shaded area to air dry. Avoid direct sunlight and tumble drying, as these can cause shrinkage or fading.

Gentle Ironing

If ironing is necessary, use a low setting while the textile is slightly damp. A pressing cloth can protect delicate fibers from direct heat and prevent scorching.

Thoughtful Storage

Fold your textiles neatly and store them in a cool, dry place away from sunlight to prevent fading. To deter moths, place cedar blocks or lavender sachets with your stored textiles.

Professional Care for Stubborn Stains

For persistent stains or particularly delicate pieces, consider professional dry cleaning to ensure your textile receives expert care without damage.
