Sevya Handmade

"Sevya" is a Sanskrit word that means "caring through service"; caring for humanity and for the environment we live in.

Sevya is dedicated to preserving the indigenous art forms and cultures of India by supporting the artisan communities who uphold these traditions. They work directly with artisan communities throughout India to develop contemporary styles of apparel & accessories that showcase their traditional and eco-friendly methods of handcraft--including hand-loom, block-printing, tie-dye, and embroidery. Their collection of fair trade apparel, accessories, and home linens are made with the finest natural materials using traditional craft techniques, which are passed down from generation to generation. By providing a sustainable livelihood to these artisan communities, they help to ensure that these artisans, and their craft traditions, can continue to flourish.

Sevya is a member of the Fair Trade Federation.

Lingerie Care

Lingerie can be a tricky thing to care for, especially when dealing with fine craftsmanship, luxurious bras, or high-quality materials that can’t wash with other garments. 

Do’s:

  • When in doubt, hand wash with warm, not hot, water.
  • Dry naturally - hang up gently to avoid wrinkles.
  • Use a small amount of Soak Wash soap and gently massage your lingerie. No rinse necessary (Soak samples included with every online purchase). Click the link to view our Soak Wash products available for purchase.
  • Use a reusable laundry bag to keep your undergarments separate from other dirty garments. Click the link to view laundry bags available for purchase. 
  • For loungewear, lay flat or hang gently to dry. 
  • For loungewear, machine wash on warm, gentle settings. Hand wash advised. 
  • For 100% silk products, dry clean, cold wash, and ironing ok. Handwashing may change the luster of silk. 

Dont's:

  • Wash your lingerie in a washing machine. This can damage the materials, colors, embroideries, or cause harmful rips.
  • Tumble dry. Lingerie should always dry naturally and be hung up carefully away from other garments. 
  • Iron. 
  • Dry clean. 
  • Bleach.
