Washing and Care Instructions for Agua Scarf 100% Silk Scarf

To preserve the elegance, vibrant colours, and luxurious feel of your Agua Scarf100% silk scarf, please follow these care instructions:

Washing Instructions

1. Hand Wash Only:

   • Fill a basin with lukewarm water (30°C or below).

   • Add a small amount of mild detergent designed for delicate fabrics or silk.

   • Submerge the scarf and gently swirl it in the water for a few minutes. Avoid scrubbing or twisting the fabric.

2. Do Not Machine Wash:

   • Washing machines, even on delicate cycles, can damage the fine silk fibers and the vibrant pattern.

3. Rinse Thoroughly:

   • Rinse the scarf in cool water until all detergent is removed.

4. Avoid Soaking:

   • Do not soak silk for extended periods, as it may cause the fabric to weaken or lose its sheen.

Drying Instructions

1. Press Out Excess Water:

   • Lay the scarf flat on a clean towel and roll the towel with the scarf inside to gently press out excess water. Avoid wringing or twisting.

2. Air Dry Flat:

   • Place the scarf flat on a dry towel in a shaded area. Allow it to air dry naturally.

   • Avoid hanging it to dry, as this may stretch the delicate silk fabric.

3. Avoid Direct Sunlight:

   • Prolonged exposure to sunlight can fade the colours and damage the silk fibres.

Ironing Instructions

1. Use Low Heat:

   • If ironing is needed, use a cool iron (silk setting) on the reverse side of the scarf while it is slightly damp.

   • Place a clean cloth between the iron and the silk to prevent direct contact and preserve the sheen.

2. Steam Carefully:

   • Alternatively, use a handheld steamer, keeping it a few inches away from the scarf to remove wrinkles.

Storage Tips

• Keep Flat or Rolled: To avoid creases, store your silk scarf flat or loosely rolled.

• Avoid Plastic Bags: Use a breathable fabric bag to protect the scarf from dust while allowing the silk to breathe.

• Protect from Moths: Place natural repellents like lavender sachets or cedar blocks near your scarf.

• Avoid Heavy Objects: Do not place heavy items on top of the scarf, as this can leave marks or flatten the silk.

What to Avoid

• Bleach or Harsh Chemicals: These can damage the silk and fade the colours.

• High Heat: Avoid tumble drying, ironing on high settings, or exposing the scarf to excessive heat.

• Rough Surfaces: Be mindful of snagging the silk on sharp or rough surfaces.

By following these steps, your Agua Scarf 100% silk scarf will remain a cherished and elegant accessory for years to come.
