Silk Care Instructions

Silk is a delicate natural fibre that deserves gentle care to preserve its beauty, texture, and shine. Please follow these care instructions to ensure your silk lasts for years to come.

Washing

  • Hand wash only in cold or lukewarm water (below 30°C).
  • Use a mild detergent formulated for silk or delicate fabrics. You may add a small amount of white hair conditioner to the water — it helps restore silk’s natural protein, keeping the fabric soft, smooth, and lustrous.
  • Do not use bleach, stain removers, or harsh chemicals.
  • Gently agitate the fabric — do not wring, twist, or scrub.
  • Note: For Gambiered Guangdong Gauze Silk , slight colour fading during hand washing is normal due to its traditional natural dyeing process.

Rinsing

  • Rinse thoroughly with clean, cool water with
  • Add a few drops of white vinegar to the final rinse to help maintain silk’s natural shine (optional).

Drying

  • Do not tumble dry.
  • Lay the fabric flat on a clean towel and roll it gently to remove excess water.
  • Hang or lay flat to air dry in the shade, away from direct sunlight.

Ironing

  • Iron while the silk is slightly damp on the reverse side.
  • Use the lowest heat setting (Silk or Cool) on your iron.
  • Place a clean cloth between the iron and the silk to prevent marks or shine.

Storage

  • Store silk garments in a cool, dry place away from direct light.
  • Avoid hanging heavy silk garments for long periods.
  • Keep away from moths by using natural repellents such as lavender or cedar.

Professional Cleaning

  • For Song Dynasty Brocade Silk, dry cleaning is recommended to protect its complex weaving and fine detailing.
  • Structured garments or those with mixed materials should also be professionally cleaned.
