Silk hankies are a pure, unspun form<\/strong> of the silk fiber, obtained by processing natural silk into thin, light, compact plies. They take the form of soft, regular sheets of fiber in which the silk retains its original characteristics of fineness, luster and softness<\/strong>. Use them to add a precious and luminous touch to creations. Thanks to their natural luster and thin, irregular texture, they blend easily between other fibers, creating delicate light effects, silky reflections and light transparencies. Or insert them into fabrics, felts or layered surfaces: they will enhance the final work with a refined and distinctive accent, capable of enhancing the materiality and depth of the artifact. <\/p>\n

Availability and packaging
\n<\/strong>Silk hankies are available in packs of 10 g, 50 g and 500 g <\/strong>per color. Each package has a natural tolerance of \u00b13%. <\/strong>The different packages are designed for both those who need small quantities and those who need large quantities and\/or want to save money.
\nFor 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> with no loss of quality. <\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/section>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
