Saharaui Hand Loomed Ruana

The maintenance and cleaning of Wool fabrics require special attention due to the characteristics of this natural fibre, which is soft, lightweight, and delicate. Below, we share recommendations for their care, based on the best practices in textile care:

• We recommend professional cleaning for this piece.
• The piece may be damaged by hand washing, the best option is dry cleaning for its care.
• If there are stains, exceptionally, they can be treated by attempting to remove them with a clean, soft cloth, slightly dampened.
• Never use a centrifuge or tumble dryer.
• Exceptionally, hand wash with cold water (maximum 30°C), using a mild or neutral soap.
• Do not use bleach or harsh detergents.
• Avoid wringing, rubbing, or scrubbing.
• Lay flat on a clean, dry towel in a well-ventilated area to dry, away from direct sunlight and heat sources, such as radiators or stoves.
• If necessary, iron on a low setting, preferably with steam, using a cotton cloth between the iron and the garment to prevent direct contact of the heat with the wool.
• Store in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight.
• Use a breathable fabric bag for long-term storage. Avoid storing in plastic bags.
• Avoid crushing by stacking wool garments excessively.
• Avoid contact with perfumes, hairsprays, creams, or harsh chemicals that may stain or damage the wool.
• Continuous friction with textured or rough surfaces can damage the wool.
