What Is Tussah Silk
|
| |
| Tussah or wild silk worms live naturally in tropical or semi-tropical forests. Their silk is gathered after the moth emerges. There are many varieties and shades of wild silk. As the caterpillars eat all kinds of different trees, all rich in tannin, the silk is beige to brownish toned.
Tussah silks are wildcrafted and thus may be considered "organically raised". They are naturally tan, and generally are stronger and more resilient than cultivated "white" silks.
Tussah silk fibers are added to the lye water mixture where it dissolves. Tussah silk is part of what makes our soap so silky feeling on your skin. Hence - "Shea Butter Body Silk™" Luxury Handcrafted Soap.
