Silk first originated in China around 4 thousand years ago, which makes it one of the earliest fabrics produced by a human. Even though Chinese emperors loved wearing silk clothes, they were quite secretive about the nuances of silk production effectively maintaining a monopoly until the Silk Road opened around 500 BC.

Now, the times have changed, we are not afraid to answer the question ”What does silk feel like?”. This fabric is soft and gentle to the touch yet quite stretchy, very smooth and hypoallergenic.

The fact that natural silk is hypoallergenic and elastic makes it an ideal material for bedsheets, clothes, scrunchies, and other accessories.
