How to check saree quality?

To check saree quality, especially silk, conduct a burn test on a loose thread (pure silk turns to ash/smells like burnt hair, fake melts), verify the government’s official Silk Mark tag, and check if the zari is real (turns silver when scratched). Other key checks include checking the weight for density, feeling for natural warmth, and ensuring the pattern is woven (not printed).
