Caring for Your Silk Thread:
To ensure your silk thread retains its exceptional properties for a long time, we recommend following these care instructions:
- Washing: NO – silk is sensitive to water and may lose its shape and sheen.
- Bleaching: NO – harsh chemicals could damage the silk's structure.
- Tumble Drying: NO – gentle air drying away from direct sunlight is recommended.
- Ironing: Very low temperature, ideally through a damp cloth, to prevent scorching.
- Dry Cleaning: NO – we recommend avoiding aggressive solvents.
