Sarongs are not only the perfect beach wrap but have a variety of other uses at the beach or around the house. The sarongs we offer come to you from the tropical island of Bali. Pareo is another commonly used word for the same garment. We travel there annually to pick out the best designs. Most of these beautiful designs are done by batik, applying wax to the fabric to resist the dye. The wax is then removed revealing the design. All are made of 100% Rayon. The size is approximately 66" x 46", not including the fringe. You can hand wash them or put them in the washing machine in cold water. Hang to dry. Wash separately the first wash or two.
