What is Tussah Silk?

Tussah Silk is a type of natural silk produced by wild silkworms, primarily the Tussah silkworm (Antheraea pernyi). Unlike the more common Mulberry Silk, which comes from domesticated silkworms, Tussah Silk is known for its distinct texture and natural golden-brown color. Its fibers are thicker and more durable than those of Mulberry Silk, giving the fabric a unique, slightly coarser feel.

 

Benefits for the Human Body

Tussah Silk is valued for its health and comfort benefits, which are a result of its natural composition and properties:

  • Breathability and Moisture-Wicking: Tussah Silk has excellent breathability, which helps regulate body temperature. It can absorb moisture, keeping the skin cool and dry in warm weather, and provides insulation to keep you warm in colder temperatures.

  • Hypoallergenic: As a natural fiber, Tussah Silk is generally free of chemical additives and is resistant to dust mites. This makes it an ideal choice for people with sensitive skin or allergies.

  • Rich in Amino Acids: The protein structure of Tussah Silk is similar to that of human skin. It contains various amino acids that are believed to help nourish and moisturize the skin, contributing to overall skin health.

  • Natural Antimicrobial Properties: The silk has natural resistance to bacteria and mildew, which helps keep bedding and clothing clean and hygienic.

Due to these properties, Tussah Silk products, such as bedding and garments, are a comfortable, healthy, and eco-friendly choice.

Silk Fabric Care Instructions

1. **Hand Wash Only – Do Not Machine Wash**
Silk is a delicate fabric that requires gentle handling. Machine washing can compromise the integrity of the silk fibers, leading to loss of sheen and potential whitening.
When hand washing, avoid aggressive rubbing or wringing. Instead, gently agitate the fabric by lifting or pressing it in the water.

2. **Use a pH-Neutral Detergent**
Always opt for a detergent specifically formulated for silk. Avoid alkaline detergents or soap, as they can cause the silk to harden, become brittle, or lose its color.

3. **Wash in Cold Water**
Immerse the silk in cold water (room temperature) for no more than 5-10 minutes before washing. Prolonged soaking or exposure to hot water can damage the fabric’s structure and color.

4. **Drying Instructions**
Do not expose silk to direct sunlight or heat sources such as dryers. Instead, dry the garment in a shaded, well-ventilated area to preserve its color and prevent fiber degradation.

Following these guidelines will help maintain the luxurious texture, vibrant color, and longevity of your silk garments.
