BEAUTIFUL HEAVY WEIGHT SILK WITH SLIGHT TEXTURE ON A SPECIAL OFFER. ANY SILK WITH THIS CONSTRUCTION AND WEIGHT WOULD NORMALLY RETAIL FOR £100/MT OR MORE.

DESCRIPTION: This is a 8 ply heavy weight silk with a few tiny slubs which we call Heavy Fine Ribbed Silk. The width is 48”/120 cms. The colour is deep red with fine white ribbed effect. The weight of the silk is approximately 230 grams per linear metre. It has matt finish i.e. not too shiny. The fabric quality needs to be seen and on cutting and stitching the real difference can be seen. The cost of a silk fabric is determined by the weight, grade of yarn used, weave, and design.

USES: This fabric can be used for light/heavy upholstery has it has the strength to withstand a certain degree of abrasion. However, we have not flame proofed any of our silks though one of the characteristics of silk yarn is that it does not go into flames when lit.

CARE: We recommend dry cleaning.

It is advisable to get a sample prior to ordering fabric as despite our best effort the picture does not always reflect the correct shade. Certain colours seem to be difficult for the camera to capture. Maybe our camera is not as good as our silks!!

IF MORE THAN ONE UNIT OF HALF METRE IS BOUGHT IT WILL BE SENT AS CONTINOUS FABRIC AND NOT AS CUT HALF METRE PIECES.
