For Items that need to be specially treated e.g. leather, silk, cashmere, fur, velvet and other delicate garments, please ensure that these Items can be machine washed and tumble dried. We will not be liable for Items damaged that have been processed in a tumble dryer although the Items state they are suitable for this.
