Good to know
Is the The Moghul Gilet handmade?
Yes. Every Surahi piece is designed in Jaipur and handcrafted by our karigars (artisans), so small variations in embroidery and colour are part of its character and show it was made by hand.
How do I care for it?
Dry Clean Only Harsh Chemicals used in dry cleaning may change the color of embellishments Store in cotton bags or muslin cloth Avoid contact with perfumes, oils or any kind of liquids Iron only on reverse side & use low to medium setting or steam iron Too much friction may lead to pilling Rotate folding every few months to prevent permanent creasing in the embroidery
