Care Guide: Preserving Nature’s Softness

Fibers like mulberry silk, organic cotton, linen, bamboo, and merino wool are delicate textiles. They are highly durable but require gentle washing to maintain their smooth texture and original fabric structure.
Follow these steps to keep your essentials in excellent condition for years to come.

The Main Rule: Use Mild Detergent
Standard detergents often contain added enzymes, optical brighteners, and heavy fragrances that can remain in the fabric threads after washing.
  • Recommendation: Always use a pH-neutral, fragrance-free, liquid detergent made for delicate fabrics.
  • Avoid: Fabric softeners and bleach. Softeners coat the threads in a thin film that lowers airflow and can make the fabric feel stiff or irritating.
Material-Specific Care
Mulberry Silk
Silk consists of delicate protein filaments and must be handled carefully.
  • Wash: Hand wash in cool water or use the "Delicate" machine cycle inside a mesh laundry bag.
  • Dry: Do not tumble dry. Lay flat on a clean towel or hang to air dry away from direct sunlight.
  • Iron: Use the lowest setting while the fabric is still slightly damp.
Linen
Linen handles water well and becomes softer with regular washing.
  • Wash: Machine wash on a gentle cycle with cool or lukewarm water.
  • Dry: Air drying is best to prevent fabric shrinkage. If using a dryer, select the lowest heat setting and remove the item while it is still slightly damp.
  • Iron: You can leave the natural fabric wrinkles as they are. For a smooth look, iron while damp on high heat.
Organic Cotton
Our long-staple cotton is durable because it does not use artificial "non-iron" chemical coatings.
  • Wash: Machine wash with similar colors in cool to warm water.
  • Dry: Tumble dry on low heat. High heat can weaken the threads and cause fabric shrinkage.
  • Tip: Wash new cotton items before wearing them to remove any transit dust.
Bamboo
Bamboo threads are highly absorbent and require a gentle cycle to prevent fabric pilling.
  • Wash: Cold water wash on a gentle cycle.
  • Dry: Air drying is highly recommended. Bamboo items are heavy when wet, so dry them flat to maintain their original shape.
Simple Stain Removal
Avoid strong chemical stain sticks.
  • The Simple Method: For fresh stains, mix baking soda and water or use a small amount of your regular liquid laundry detergent. Gently dab do not scrub the area to protect the fabric weave.
Storage Tips
  • Airflow: Store your bedding and clothes in a cool, dry place. Avoid plastic storage boxes, which can trap moisture and cause mildew.
  • Fabric Protection: Use cedar blocks or dried lavender bags instead of chemical mothballs to keep your wardrobe fresh.
Proper fabric care keeps your clothing and bedding in excellent condition. By following these steps, you ensure that your everyday wardrobe items maintain their soft, smooth, and lightweight texture for a very long time.
