More information about silk and how towels are made.
Golden Silk Towel is made from pure Cambodia’s silk yarn. The Cambodian Silk yarn is known as one of the finest in whole South East Asia. Phnom Srok is the only region, which has continuously maintained its knowledge and skills from their ancestors, both in silkworm breeding, and weaving after they almost lost it during the long civil war. Now the tradition is being expanded to different provinces in Cambodia.
Cambodian Golden Silk is made from the cocoons of silk worms. There are two types of mulberry leaves available in Cambodia. A small leafed variety is native to Cambodian. The advantages are that the leaf grows with less water. These leaves are the food of the silk worm that producers a beautiful textured silk yarn.
The silk worm is picked when it is about two centimetres long, firm and a rich yellow colour. The farmers grow the cocoons, spin by the yarn and weave to make a fabric or scarf.
The Silk is yarn coming out from the cocoon is a magically magnificent fiber that gives a very luxurious texture yarn. It is traditionally produced by farmers, and woven by farmer's wives where the skills were taken from their ancestors and passed through generation to generation.
