Care instructions for wool and silk items from Nair
Your wool and silk garments are more than just clothing. They embody luxury, softness, and a unique texture that must be treated with special care. Proper care ensures that the color, shape, and softness of the fabric are preserved for many years.
1. Washing — only the best for your products
- Use only professional detergents designed for delicate fabrics, such as Steamery Wool & Silk Wash. Regular powders or gels will not preserve the fabric’s texture and color.
- Hand washing is still the best option: fill a basin with warm water (no more than 30°C), add detergent, and gently submerge the item, lightly rubbing the fabric.
2. Rinsing
- The rinse water should be cool until the detergent is completely rinsed out.
3. Drying — Respect for the Fabric
- Never wring out or dry the items in direct sunlight or on a radiator.
- Place it on a clean towel, roll it up to remove excess moisture, then lay it out in its natural shape on a dry towel or rack.
- Gently smooth out silk garments with your hands to avoid creases and preserve their elegant, flowing texture.
4. Storage — aroma and flavor
- Woolen and other delicate items should be stored folded in a closet.
- Silk blouses and delicate garments should be hung on a clothes hanger, preferably in a fabric bag.
- Place scented cards or sachets with natural fragrances (lavender, sandalwood, cedar) among your items—this will keep out unwanted odors and moths.

- If you don’t want to bother with hand washing and delicate drying, we partner with the KIMS dry cleaning chain. Use the promo code NAIR15 to get a 15% discount on all services. Your items will be in the safe hands of professionals.
6. Machine wash only when necessary
- We do not recommend washing wool and silk in the washing machine. If, however, you trust your machine, be sure to select the “wool” cycle, not the “delicate” cycle, as is often mistakenly done.
- Use only special detergents for wool and silk, with minimal or no spinning.
