This is the “Natural” state of Dupion, left in its unbleached, un-dyed glory. It possesses a warm, earthy tone that reflects the actual color of the silk cocoon before processing. The yarn is thick and full of character, with prominent slubs that create a beautiful, “random” pattern when woven. It is the quintessential choice for interior design, specifically for curtains and lampshades that need to diffuse light. The “Natural” hue provides a grounding, organic feel to any room. It is a yarn that celebrates the beautiful imperfections of the natural world.

Fine Twisted Pure Dupion Silk Yarn (White)
This yarn takes the traditional “slubby” Dupion and refines it, offering a “Fine” version for more delicate work. It has the characteristic texture of Dupion—where two cocoons have nested together—but in a much thinner profile. The white color is bright and clean, making it suitable for modern, minimalist designs. The “Twisted” nature of the thread ensures it is durable enough for both warp and weft applications. It is often used to create “Shantung” silk, a fabric known for its ribbed texture and elegant drape. This yarn is perfect for those who want the Dupion look without the heavy weight.

3 Count Silk Noil Yarn (White)
Sitting right in the middle of the noil family, the 3-count yarn is a versatile medium-weight thread. It offers a slightly more rustic look than the 4-count, with more frequent textural variations that catch the eye. The white color is brilliant, acting as a high-contrast backdrop for the shadows created by its own texture. It is particularly effective when used in the weft to create horizontal “slubs” across a smoother warp. This yarn is often chosen for high-end upholstery where a natural, “earthy” luxury is the design goal. It bridges the gap between the primitive and the polished.

Raw Silk Yarn (White & Yellow)
This unique offering features a blend of white and yellow silk filaments, celebrating the diversity of the silk harvest. The “White” provides a clean brightness, while the “Yellow” adds a warm, sun-kissed undertone to the finished weave. It is a “raw” yarn, meaning the natural gum (sericin) is still present, giving it a stiff, paper-like quality. When the finished fabric is washed, the gum dissolves, leaving behind an incredibly soft and voluminous material. This dual-tone yarn is often used to create “chameleon” fabrics that appear to change color in different lighting. It is a tribute to the raw, unadulterated power of the silkworm’s labor.

2 Ply Spun Silk Yarn Cone (White)
Delivered on a convenient industrial cone, this 2-ply spun silk is ready for immediate use in machine knitting or high-volume weaving. The cone format prevents tangling and ensures a steady tension as the yarn feeds into the machinery. The yarn itself is a soft, white blend of silk fibers that offer a cozy, matte texture to the finished textile. It is particularly popular for creating luxury knitwear, such as lightweight sweaters and cardigans. By combining the convenience of the cone with the luxury of silk, it bridges the gap between artisanal quality and industrial efficiency. It is the workhorse of the luxury apparel industry.
