*Pictures were taken in natural light & since this item is handwoven & hand dyed with different hues of dark red, it may show different shades of red depending on amount of light & location
* Note: **The item is woven with both warp yarns (which runs longitudinally) & weft yarn (that crosses it). To avoid the warp yarn from getting torn or broken during weaving, the weaver strengthen the yarns with starch, rice-or potato flour. The result is a hardening of the fabric, but will get softer after using or washing a few times. Hand-washing is highly recommended.
To Care: 1. To prevent future color bleeding, we suggest adding 2-3 table spoons of table salt in warm water for first time washing. 2. Wring the fabric gently. 3. Air Dry.
