Before you purchase

* This product is also sold in stores, so it may be sold out at the time of your order. If the product is out of stock after you place your order, we will contact you.
* Hand-spun yarn is mainly produced by village women using a modern and highly efficient spinning wheel called an ambar charka. When the thread breaks, it is characteristic that neps are formed when it is spun by hand.
* Most hand-woven and hand-spun fabrics are made in village huts, and depending on the environment, threads and grass may be mixed in. There may also be uneven areas, twists, smudges caused by skipped threads, and unavoidable stains. Please understand that these are characteristics of Indian fabrics before purchasing.
* Depending on the material, friction when worn may cause shrinkage or pilling. Please avoid excessive friction or pressure as it may cause damage to the fabric.
* Please be aware that dark colored fabrics and clothing may fade or transfer color due to friction, rain, sweat, etc. We also recommend washing separately from other clothing and drying in the shade. Please be careful when wearing with light colored clothing or bags, or when using it together with furniture.
* We recommend washing at home in cold water with a mild detergent and drying in the shade. If using a washing machine, use a laundry net.
