This beautiful handwoven Tussar silk has been gently washed and softened to reveal a supple, relaxed version of wild silk’s signature character. Unlike crisp raw Tussar, this fabric has a fluid handfeel and an elegant, lived-in drape, making it perfect for garments that need softness without losing the depth and soul of true silk.

Woven from wild Tussar silk yarns, the fabric retains subtle slubs and tonal variation that give it its artisanal, organic appearance. The washing process relaxes the fibres and slightly mattifies the surface, allowing the silk to fall more naturally while still reflecting a soft, earthy sheen.

At 170 GSM, this is a versatile midweight silk—light enough for dresses, blouses, tunics, and scarves, yet substantial enough for layered garments, kimono jackets, soft trousers, and interior accents such as cushions or curtains.

Each yard carries the quiet beauty of handloom weaving, where no two lengths are exactly the same—only better with time and wear.
