About Thai Silk

What is Thai silk? Silk is the natural filament produced by the salivary glands of silkworms which are a type of moth that feeds on the mulberry bush. Silkworms are caterpillars, not worms. They spin their cocoons using a complex set of mechanisms within their bodies when they change from larva in to pupa. Thai silk is produced by Thai caterpillars raised on Thai mulberry leaves by Thai weavers in Thailand. The silk from Thailand 's caterpillars varies in color from light gold to very light green.

Identification: Since traditional Thai silk is hand woven, each silk fabric is unique and cannot be duplicated through commercial means. In contrast, artificial silk is machine woven, which means that every part of the fabric is identical and has the same color. In addition, Thai silk has a unique luster, with a sheen that has two unique blends: one color for the warp and another for the weft. Color changes as you hold the Thai silk fabric at varying angles against light. Moreover, Thai silk smells like hair when burned, a testament to the natural fiber that comes from the silk worm, which is similar to the fiber of human hair and fingernails. If you move the flame, Thai silk immediately stops burning. On the other hand, artificial silk smells like plastic when burned. In terms of price, Thai silk is usually 10 times more expensive than artificial silk.

Our real pure Thai silk weave is completely hand made and the filament is a natural fiber with clearly visible small flaws and joins in the thread along the warp and the weft.

What is Taffeta? Taffeta is a silk made from white silk cocoons. It varies from country to country but some people say it's not made in Thailand. We have the white silk worm cocoons so suspect that Thai weavers do make taffeta but just don't call it that.

Answers.com defines tafetta as: “A crisp, smooth, plain-woven fabric with a slight sheen.”

wikipedia defines taffeta as: "Taffeta is a crisp, smooth woven fabric made from silk or synthetic fibres. The word is Persian in origin, and means "twisted woven." It is considered to be a "high end" fabric, suitable for use in ball gowns, wedding dresses, and in interiors for curtains or wallcovering. There are two distinct types of silk taffeta: yarn-dyed and piece-dyed. Piece-dyed taffeta is often used in linings and is quite soft. Yarn-dyed taffeta is much stiffer and is often used in evening dresses."

What is Dupioni silk? Dupioni is an interesting textured silk fabric. One way Thai weavers create this popular weave is by mixing silk from both long, smooth, white cocoons and short, rough, yellow cocoons. Thai weavers do not use this term. They instead refer to the fabric as “not smooth”. We now categorize weaves locally referred to as rough, nubby, coarse and not smooth as “Thai Dupioni”. Dupioni is also refers to the type of yarn used to make this irregular weave “slub” texture fabric with currently so popular with designers of luxury apparel & bridal gowns.

Silk Care Instructions:

  • Dry clean if it is needed.
  • Hand wash is ok by
    • Use mild soap and cool or warm water .
    • Wash separately items silk from different colours.
    • Handle gently silk items. DO NOT WRING OR TWIST
    • Do not use pre-soak products or chlorine bleach.
    • Hank silk items away from strong sun until damp dry.
  • Avoid direct contact with chemicals, e.g. perfumes, hair-spray, etc.
