      Dimensions

      65cm x 200cm Approx. Please allow for small discrepancies due to the handmade nature of this item

      Made from

      100% Pure silk

      Regular silk is produced from the cocoons by killing thousands of silk worms - dropping them into boiling water before they can metamorphose into moths. By preventing the moth chewing its way through the cocoon to escape, one long continuous thread can be produced. Organic silk is produced from the cocoon where the moth is naturally released. By allowing the moth to pierce the cocoon, the resulting yarn is in many smaller pieces (instead of one continuous thread). These must be spun together to make a single thread. This process takes time and makes the silk highly valued. It results in a fabric which is slubbed and multi-tonal; a truly wild silk.
