Product Care & Safety Policy
Sutrika By Anve
At our brand, every saree is crafted with care and meant to be cherished for years to come. Proper fabric care plays an important role in maintaining the beauty, texture, and elegance of your saree. From luxurious silks and breathable cottons to delicate chiffons and graceful georgettes, each fabric deserves gentle and mindful handling. Through this guide, we aim to help you care for your sarees the right way, so they continue to look timeless and beautiful with every wear.
The first step in saree care is understanding the fabric. Your saree is either a handcrafted handloom creation or beautifully adorned through hand-block printing or hand-brush painting by skilled artisans. Thoughtfully crafted with care, it deserves gentle handling to preserve its beauty and elegance for years to come.
Proper storage is one of the most important steps in preserving the beauty and life of your sarees. To maintain their colour, texture, and craftsmanship, store your sarees in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Delicate fabrics such as silk are best wrapped in soft cotton or muslin cloth to protect them from dust and moisture. We also recommend refolding your sarees from time to time to prevent permanent creases. Heavily embroidered or embellished sarees can be stored hanging to help preserve the intricate detailing and maintain their graceful fall.
✧ Nature of Handloom or print
Every handloom saree is carefully handwoven using traditional artisanal techniques, making each piece truly unique. Subtle variations in weave, embroidery, texture, zari, and colour are natural characteristics that reflect the authenticity and craftsmanship of handmade creations.
Our printed sarees are created using traditional techniques such as hand-block printing and hand-brush painting. Made with natural fabrics, threads, and dyes, slight variations in colour, print, and texture are natural features of the product and add to its unique character.
Mild colour bleeding or fading over time is normal and should be expected.
✧ Fabric Care
- Dry clean only
• Do not machine wash or soak
• Steam Iron on low to medium heat from the reverse side
• Avoid spraying perfume, deodorant, or chemicals directly on the fabric
✧ Zari & Borders
Zari and woven motifs are delicate.
Handle gently and avoid excessive friction or pulling.
✧ Important Note
Sarees are meant for personal wear and cultural use.
Improper washing, storage, alterations, or chemical exposure may cause damage.
✧ A Thoughtful Reminder
A handloom saree is not just worn — it is preserved.
