The Art of Silk
Silk is more than a fabric—it's a narrative of nature's elegance and human craftsmanship.
Originating from the cocoon of the Bombyx mori silkworm, each strand of silk is a testament to patience and precision. The process begins with the silkworm spinning a cocoon from a single, continuous filament, which can extend up to 1,000 meters in length. Once harvested, these cocoons undergo a delicate process where they're gently boiled to soften the sericin—a natural protein that binds the fibers. This allows for the extraction of the lustrous silk threads without compromising their integrity.
The threads are then meticulously reeled, dyed, and woven, resulting in a fabric renowned for its unparalleled softness, natural sheen, and breathable quality. This intricate journey from cocoon to cloth embodies the essence of luxury that Saidia stands for.
