Uzbeki "Purity"

We are presenting a wonderful new Uzbeki silk fabric named "Purity".

Hand reeled, organically raised heritage strain of silk.  Hand woven on traditional foot-pedal looms.

This fabric is woven from 100% natural silk that has been hand reeled from the cocoon.  Hand reeling on simple home equipment allows families to reel the pierced breeder cocoons.  Thus this is reeled "Peace" Silk!
