Salt Spring Island - 25 Gram - Fernwood

Hand-Painted A1 Quality Bombyx Silk from India Combed Top/sliver

The shine of the Bombyx silk is reflected in this colorway...it just glows like sunlight lighting a basket of ripe plums

Bombyx silk is from the Bombyx mori silk worm...also called mulberry silk, becuase the silk worm eats only mulberry leaves.

Salt Spring Island colorways are hand-painted in Colorado.  Our silks are colorfast and our colorways are consistent.  Hand-painting silk sliver is a labor-intensive process. It requires careful manipulation and effort to achieve even color coverage on silk sliver.
