Wild silk is made by silkworms that live in the wild. Wild silkworms feed on and live in trees.

Wild silk is a lot more textured than regular silk.

Due to its short fiber length, wild silk is more comparable to wool.

It has the same positive attributes as silk.

The process of making wild silk is also known as non-violent, which is when the silk is processed without killing the silkworm. Once the moth leaves its cocoon, the silk is collected and processed into yarn.

Wash your silk as little as possible; it can be enough to wash silk only a few times a year, as it’s self-cleaning. To reduce washes, you can air out your garment, steam, hang it up while showering or use a delicate fabric refreshing spray. Remove stains right away by spot cleaning. Handwashing is recommended. Silk is a delicate fabric, so to maintain its original luster, color and avoid signs of wear, choose dry cleaning.

If you choose to machine wash, wash at a maximum of 30°C on a hand wash program with a spin cycle of no more than 800 revolutions per minute. Use a laundry bag to protect the fabric from damage, and fill the laundry bag no more than halfway. Wash silk with other delicate fabrics and turn inside out to reduce friction on the surface. Do not use bleach or fabric softener, as they can damage the fabric.

Use enzyme-free, pH-neutral laundry detergent. Enzymes in regular detergents break down protein-based fibers like silk.

Hang dry, silk cannot stand tumble drying.
