The NRI Guide: Buying Heritage Silk from Abroad

Overcoming the Distance

Buying a $1,000 saree from New York or London can be nerve-wracking. How do you ensure the "hand-feel" from a screen?

The Remote Inspection Checklist

1. The Drape Video: At Rare Mriga, we provide high-definition videos of the saree being draped on a mannequin. You can see how the fabric falls and how the zari catches the light.

2. The Blouse Blueprint: Our international tailoring service uses a 25-point measurement system. We provide a digital mockup before the first stitch is made.

3. The Duty Transparency: We assist in calculating estimated import duties for the USA, UK, and Canada so there are no surprises at your doorstep.

Security & Insurance

Every international box is vacuum-sealed and insured. We use DHL Express to ensure your heritage piece spends the minimum time in transit, arriving fresh and crisp.
