Silk is a natural protein fiber with a delicate structure that can easily be damaged by harsh chemicals, heat, or friction. Its luxurious feel, natural sheen, and breathability all depend on maintaining its integrity.
Because of its sensitivity, gentle handling ensures silk retains its softness, shape, and longevity. Proper care also prevents discoloration, shrinkage, and fiber breakdown—allowing you to enjoy silk’s beauty for years.
Many high-quality silk products are certified by standards such as OEKO-TEX® and GOTS (Global Organic Textile Standard), which ensure the fabric is made without harmful substances and produced under sustainable, responsible processes. Following proper care practices helps uphold these standards and extends the life of the fabric while supporting environmental responsibility.
