Washing and Care
Washing and care methods vary depending on the material.
Here are care instructions for silk, cotton, polyester, rayon, and linen.
Silk
Silk has a unique luster and rich coloring, giving it an elegant and refined appearance.
Its soft texture and luxurious feel make it ideal for special occasions.
A representative type of silk is called "Chirimen" (Crepe de Chine). When made from 100% silk, it is also referred to as pure silk.

Please note: Organic cotton is not bleached, so small black specks from the cotton plant may remain in the fabric.
