The special
Natural colors change over time (e.g., due to light or friction) and are sensitive to additives in detergents. Care for your silk scarf like the exclusive designer piece it is: hand wash, use a pH-neutral detergent, and you'll enjoy it for a long time.
*Small amounts of iron sulfate are safe, but be careful. Do not use containers containing iron for cooking.
