Silk:
This item is made out of 100% silk. Silk is made from natural fibers, extracted from the cocoon of a silk caterpillar. Silk has the property to be shiny and to have an insulate and regulate capacity. This means that it has the characteristics of being warm in the winter and cold in summer. Silk can be dyed in very bright colors, therefore it's very suitable for saris. As this is a preloved material, this fabric became very fragile. Therefore I decided to create a quilted item out of it with padding inside, so it can extend it’s existence much longer.
*A small side note:
This item is made out of pre-loved materials, so it may show some imperfections. I believe this is the beauty and charm of up-cycled materials and makes it even more special for you to wear.
