Mulberry Silk, also known as Bombyx Silk. When in a Hankie form it is also known as Mawata Silk.
Amount: 1 oz
Raised in captivity, the silk worms are only fed mulberry leaves which gives the supper shinny, top quality white silk. To make a Hankie the cocoons are degummed and then stretched by hand over a square frame measuring about 10x10 inches. This is done in many layers until they have a stack that is around 8-10+ ounces and to about 4 inches tall. These are then tied into a bundle and shipped to shops like mine.
