OUR SILK TULLE
ORIGIN
Our silk is 100% Grade 6A mulberry silk. Only 1–2% of the world's mulberry silk reaches this grade, and it is the only silk we use.
It comes from silkworms fed exclusively on mulberry leaves, twice a day over a six-week period, and is woven by the family mill in Turkey we have worked with since 2008.
The process is slow and largely done by hand, which is why silk holds such a high value. To learn more, see the sections on Production and Craftsmanship.
COMPOSITION & CONSTRUCTION
Composition: 100% Mulberry Silk, Grade 6A
Weight: 30 GSM (light weight)
Construction: Tulle
It's constructed using a warp-knitting technique, where multiple silk yarns run in the same direction and are looped into a delicate, net-like structure.
PROPERTIES
Mulberry silk is known as the finest silk in the world, offering natural properties such as:
- Natural & biodegradable
- Long-lasting
- Breathable
- Thermoregulating
- Gentle on skin / hypoallergenic
CARE
Wash rarely. Instead, hang outside to freshen it.
Always hang silk in the shade to maintain its color.
If needed, hand wash in cold water (max 30°).
Soap is not necessary, but if used, choose a pH-neutral detergent (around 5.5–7), as silk has a natural pH of 5.5.
Hang in humidity to remove wrinkles.
PRODUCTION
Our silk tulle is crafted from fine 20-denier mulberry silk yarns, each created by combining 10-11 cocoons into a single filament fibre.
It's made using a warp-knitting technique, where multiple silk yarns run in the same direction and are looped into a delicate, net-like structure.
During dyeing, the material is wrapped in a protective fabric and kept still while the dye bath moves around it. This is a low-friction method designed to preserve the delicacy of the fibres.
The dyes and dye components used are selected to align with organic, GOTS-chemical standards whenever possible.
Dyeing wastewater is treated and reused in local agriculture, and rainwater is collected to reduce freshwater use in production.
CRAFTMANSHIP
All our garments are crafted by our talented seamstresses in Portugal. Silk is a refined material, so it is handled with care throughout, cut and sewn using techniques tailored to its fine construction.
Each garment is finished with raw-cut edges that allow styles like skirts to be easily length-adjusted without affecting the structure of the tulle.
