Questions

Buying

How do I pay?

At checkout, through Razorpay: UPI, cards, net banking and wallets. For pieces of ₹35,000 and above, the founder can also send a secure payment link on WhatsApp once you have talked the piece through.

Will the colour match the photograph?

As closely as a screen allows. Pieces are photographed in daylight without filters. If colour matters for an occasion, ask for a video on WhatsApp before you buy.

Can you find a saree I have in mind?

Often, yes. Describe it on WhatsApp: the weave, the colour, the occasion. The founder will watch for it and write when something turns up.

Delivery and exchanges

When will my saree arrive?

Within India, pieces are dispatched within 2–3 working days, insured and tracked, and usually arrive 3–7 working days after dispatch. Shipping within India is free. The tracking link is sent by email and WhatsApp.

Can I return or exchange a piece?

We do not take returns. Every piece is checked by hand before it is folded and packed.

If a saree reaches you damaged, it is exchanged. Record one continuous, unedited video of the parcel being opened, from the sealed package onwards, and send it on WhatsApp within 48 hours of delivery. The video is how the damage is confirmed, so an exchange cannot be arranged without it.

Orders can be cancelled free of charge any time before dispatch. More on the shipping and dispatch page.

Do you ship outside India?

Yes. The shipping charge for your country is shown at checkout. Customs duties and import taxes in the destination country are paid by the recipient.

The saree

Is every saree really handwoven?

Yes. Every piece is woven by hand on a loom, which is why small irregularities in the weave and slight variations in colour are part of the cloth. They are the mark of the hand, not a flaw.

Does it come with a blouse piece?

Most pieces do. Each product page says so under Blouse piece, with its length.

Can fall and pico be done before dispatch?

Not at present. Pieces are sent as they come off the loom, and any local tailor can add fall and pico in a day or two.

How should I care for a handloom saree?

Dry clean silk and zari; hand-wash cotton cold and dry it in shade. More on the care page.
