RAMI SILKS

Pure Raw Silk Sarees

Raw silk keeps sericin, the natural gum that coats the silk filament, rather than degumming it fully. That gum gives the fabric its firmer body, slightly coarse hand and restrained matte lustre instead of a mirror shine. Raw silk sarees hold their shape and structure well, so pleats stay crisp through the day. Every raw silk saree we stock is Silk Mark certified, confirming the fibre is genuine natural silk rather than an art silk substitute.

Pure Raw Silk Sarees — Questions

What is raw silk and how is it different from pure silk?
Raw silk retains sericin, the natural gum coating the silk filament, instead of being fully degummed. That gum gives raw silk its firmer body, slightly coarse texture and matte lustre rather than a high shine. It is still one hundred per cent natural silk and carries the Silk Mark.
Are your sarees Silk Mark certified?
Yes. Every pure silk saree we sell carries the Silk Mark label issued by the Silk Mark Organisation of India, which certifies the fabric is genuine natural silk and not art silk or a synthetic blend. RAMI SILKS is authorised by the Ministry of Textiles, Government of India.
How should I wash and store a silk saree?
Dry clean only. Never machine wash or wring a pure silk saree. Store it folded in a cotton or muslin cloth rather than plastic, refold along different lines every few months so permanent creases do not set at the same points, and keep it out of direct sunlight, which fades natural dyes.
Do you ship across India?
Yes. We ship free across India. Orders are dispatched from Hyderabad, Telangana, and payment is accepted by UPI.
