Care Instructions for Natural, Handwoven, and Block Print Textiles

General Guidelines:

  • Wash before first use.
  • Use cold or warm water on a delicate cycle.
  • Avoid zippers, buttons, or sharp objects when washing.
  • Blot stains (don’t rub) and spot test stain removers.
  • Avoid harsh detergents and bleach.
  • Use wool dryer balls instead of fabric softeners.
  • Hang dry or tumble dry on low. High heat may shrink or damage fibers.
  • Expect shedding and pilling at first—this decreases with use.

Product-Specific Care:

  • Turkish Towels: Soak overnight in cold water to boost softness and absorbency.
  • Luxury Robes & Apparel: Hand wash or machine wash in a garment bag; hang to dry.
  • Woven Blankets & Throws: Delicate wash; hang or tumble dry on low.
  • Tassels & Threads: Twist and knot loose tassels. Trim, don’t pull, loose threads.
  • Block Printed Items: Hand wash or cold delicate cycle with mild detergent. Use ½ cup white vinegar or a color keeper to prevent color bleed. Hang to dry.
  • Note: Natural fabrics produce more lint than synthetics, especially linen. Wash separately initially.
