Why do so few people create natural silk with purely natural dyes?
This question was the focus of a visit to Thai Silk Magic by the team from the Queen
of Thailand's silk project seen here with Thai Silk Magic founder, Amnuai second from
the left.
The team visit to Thai Silk Magic looked at all parts of our natural silk creation process.
This included our natural dyes, hand spinning, hand weaving and even the silk weaving training
program we have for our Thai village children.
Amnuai was busy all day with the team demonstrating and explaining our processes.
What the team really wanted to know was why Thai Silk Magic did not just take the easy
option and simply use machines and chemical dyes to create our Thai
silk.
We explained to them our passion for totally natural eco-friendly silk.
And that depite the much longer and more physically demanding processes how Thai Silk Magic is
proud to create sustainable and eco-friendly Thai silk.
The team told us how delighted they were that we created 100% natural silk
as we were the only Thai silk manufacturer they had visited that were actually doing
this.
The Thai silk team were also very interested in our patterns and unique designs as well.
But what they really came to see was the finished natural silk threads.
And here they are ready for weaving into a wide range of 2, 3 and 4 ply Thai silk fabrics
and silk scarves.
The silk fabric and silk scarves are then proudly hand woven into our finished Thai
silk creations that you see on our website.
