A Gentle Introduction to Silk Care

A quiet silk care still life with cool water and a white towel

Silk rewards a little thoughtfulness. Before caring for any Lumora piece, always follow the final instructions supplied with that individual product, as construction and finishes may vary.

Start gently

Handle silk with clean hands and avoid rough surfaces that may catch delicate fibres. When a piece needs refreshing, use cool water and a mild product suitable for the final fabric specification.

Keep heat low

High heat may affect silk’s appearance and feel. Avoid direct heat unless the care label supplied with the product specifically allows it.

Dry with patience

Do not wring or twist wet silk. Instead, support the fabric, remove excess moisture gently with a clean towel and allow it to dry away from strong direct sunlight.

Store thoughtfully

Keep clean, fully dry silk in a calm space away from sharp accessories and strongly coloured items that may transfer dye.
