How do I take care of my Shilpgram products?

To ensure ideal garment care, dry-clean your Madhubani sarees and stoles (both cotton and tussar silk) to retain the vibrancy of the colors for years. Sikki art-work, stone sculptures and other home decor items can be cleaned with a clean and damp cloth. Specific care instructions are also included in the respective descriptions of the product pages.

Will my hand-painted apparel be exactly as depicted?

While we make every effort to depict and describe your apparel with accuracy, the actual colors may vary slightly from what appears on your screen. Uniqueness is in the beauty of hand-painted designs and while designs aren't exactly identical, they provide an accurate description of the final product.

All our sarees come with an attached blouse piece. The blouse worn by the model is for representational purposes only.
