Silk is one of the oldest textiles known to man, and its name suggests a rich and regal appeal. It is the most luxurious fabric available and its many properties make it a popular choice for apparel and art.
A silk strand is formed by loading it onto the reel, where it is automatically attached to another strand and twisted into a continuous string. The binding gummy material called sericin helps it to stick together.
This process is repeated until the desired length of silk strands are achieved. After this, the strands are sent to a weaving mill where they are woven into fabrics such as garments and linens.
Raw silk is the most natural form of silk that can be woven into various types of fabrics and garments. It is a soft and lustrous fabric that has a slightly nubby texture. It is a popular choice amongst designers and fashion lovers because of its unique character and its rustic look.
It is also a popular choice for casual garments because it is soft and breathable, has a good drape (especially after washing), and has a classy appearance with a subtle luster. It is also used as a lining for many clothing items and has excellent anti-bacterial properties.
