The History of Silk

Silk has been known to man for approx. 5000 years. Its discovery is attributed to Xiling, wife of the Chinese Emperor Huang-Di.

This is how the story of one of the most elegant natural fabrics success got started.

Silk came from China to Persia, Korea and Japan. Up until the 13th century silk was only available as an oriental import and only very wealthy people could afford it.  In Europe, while under Norman Rule, Southern Italy became an important centre for breeding silkworms and spinning silk. For a long time Italy remained the leading silk country in Europe until France expanded its silk weaving in the middle of the 17th century and surpassed Italy.

Compared to the world's total fibre production, silk fibres only make up less than 1%.

Hand Wash Silk in Cold Water, fill a clean sink or small tub with cold water and a small amount of liquid detergent. Do not use chlorine bleach, fabric softener or harsh chemical washing detergents. (Gentle Liquid) Lightly agitate for three to five minutes and rinse well.
