Drying Your Pure Silk Sheets:

Silk sheets should always be air-dried to prevent damage to the delicate fibers. Avoid using a dryer or hanging them in direct sunlight, which can cause fading and shrinkage. Instead, lay the silk sheets flat on a clean towel or drying rack, and allow them to air dry naturally.

Ironing Your Pure Silk Sheets:

Silk sheets should be ironed on a low heat setting to avoid damaging the fibers. Always iron silk sheets while they are still slightly damp, using a pressing cloth to protect the fabric from direct contact with the iron. Iron the sheets on the reverse side to avoid leaving any visible iron marks on the surface of the fabric.
