- In stock, ready to ship
Matka silk is a unique, hand-spun Indian silk known for its earthy, coarse texture and rustic charm, made from short, uneven fibers from pierced or damaged mulberry silk cocoons, giving it a grainy feel distinct from smooth silks, making it durable and popular for sarees, suits, and furnishings. This labor-intensive process involves hand-spinning the waste fibers (noil) into thick yarns, retaining the natural gum (sericin), and weaving them into a heavy, textured fabric that resembles tweed but with all silk fibers offering breathability and strength
- Texture: Slightly rough, grainy, and uneven due to hand-spinning, but still soft to the touch.
- Appearance: Matte, raw, and earthy, often compared to tweed but with a pure silk look.
- Durability: Very strong and robust, holding up well to wear and tear.
- Sustainability: Considered sustainable as it uses waste cocoons, preventing them from being discarded.
