This is not yet a yarn in the traditional sense, but a “Slyver“—a long, continuous rope of combed silk fibers. It is the purest form of white Mulberry silk, ready to be hand-spun or blended with other luxury materials. The fibers are soft, fluffy, and incredibly clean, representing the high standard of the combing process. Hand-spinners cherish this material for the control it gives them over the thickness and texture of their final thread. It is a bridge between the raw cocoon and the finished textile, full of potential and creative possibility. This slyver is the starting point for those who want to build their fabric from the very fiber up.

Handloom Tana Pure Silk Warp Yarn (White)
Specifically engineered for the “Tana” or warp of a loom, this yarn is the backbone of handloom weaving. It is exceptionally strong, designed to withstand the high tension required during the weaving process without snapping. The “Pure Silk” designation guarantees a high-grade filament that results in a shimmering, glass-like finish on the final fabric. Its brilliant white shade ensures that any “Bana” (weft) colors used alongside it will pop with incredible vibrancy. This yarn is the silent hero behind India’s most exquisite hand-woven sarees and stoles. Without the reliability of this Tana yarn, the art of the handloom would simply not be possible.

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.

2 Ply Chinese Twisted Dupion Silk Yarn (Cream White)
Imported for its specific “slubby” characteristics, this Chinese Dupion yarn is a favorite for evening wear. The “2 Ply” twist combines two threads that have natural irregularities, creating a surface that is pleasantly uneven. Its “Cream White” shade offers a vintage, romantic aesthetic that is softer on the eyes than pure white. The twist is tight enough to give the yarn a “crunchy” handle, which translates into the famous “rustle” of silk taffeta. It is the go-to choice for bridal gowns and structured cocktail dresses that need to hold their shape. This yarn brings a touch of Far East textile heritage to the modern atelier.
