Care & Maintenance 🌹
- Cleaning: Gently spot-clean with a soft, damp cloth. For stubborn marks, use a mild soap solution and pat dry immediately
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to preserve the velvet’s rich black color and prevent fading
- Chain Care: Occasionally wipe silver chains with a soft cloth to maintain their lustrous finish
- Moisture Protection: Avoid prolonged exposure to moisture or rain; velvet is sensitive to water damage
- Handling: The lace details are delicate; handle with care to prevent snagging
