Tussah silk<\/strong> in tops is an attractive natural fiber prized for its authentic appearance and slightly textural texture. Sourced from silkworms living in natural environments, it is distinguished by its warm, natural hues<\/strong> and a fuller texture than traditional silks. Working in tops, with combed fibers arranged in parallel, ensures continuity and ease of processing, making this fiber particularly suitable for spinning, weaving and decorative techniques that enhance the natural effect and personality of the material. <\/p>\n

Availability and packaging
\n<\/strong>Our Tussah silk tops are available in packs of 50 g, 100 g, 500 g, 1 kg <\/strong>per color. Each package has a natural tolerance of \u00b13%<\/strong> and contains continuous ribbon <\/strong>fiber. The different packages are designed for both those who need small quantities and those who need large quantities and\/or want to save money. For non-ECE<\/strong> shipments, the packages are vacuum-packed<\/strong>, reducing volume and lowering shipping costs. Don’t worry: once opened, the fiber returns to its original, fluffy volume<\/strong> without any loss of quality. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
