Black Silk Margilan. Rarefied silk fabric. Ideal for Nuno felting. Nuno Felting Supplies.
Silk craft fabric is lightweight and elegant, with a natural pearlescent sheen, colorful silk fabric is the perfect textile to incorporate into your next crafting or sewing project. Silk is beautiful and versatile: use to add texture and volume to clothing and costumes; create stand-alone pieces such as scarves and blouses; try Nuno-felting – a felting technique that combines silk and wool to create a soft, luxurious material.
This silk comes to you all the way from Margilan – the silk capital of Central Asia. Margilan is an ancient city in Uzbekistan, and for centuries was an important trading hub due to its convenient locations and abundance of sought-after goods, silk being a major one. To this day, Margilan silk is made exclusively by hand with the help of ancient secrets and techniques.
ORDER DETAILS:
This piece is approximately 2 meters long and 36 in wide.
I can customize the length, but please be aware that the size will affect the price and time.
This silk does not have any seams – the edges are unprocessed.
Please note that dyed silk supplies are limited. I use dyes and dye the fabric by hand so replicating any color/pattern is impossible. If you love it, grab it while you can! I do not offer custom orders on dyed silk at this time.
When ordering a product keep in mind that the actual colors might differ from what you see, due to the settings of the monitor.
