Why we choose to work with silk...? Silk has so many wonderful qualities, it has the strongest tensile strength of any fibre, it has the ability to absorb moisture in a way that would keep your skin hydrated, and keep you cool at the same time. It also has an insulating ability to keep you warm when it's cool out, being a perfect fabric for year round wear. Sleeping in or on silk has so many benefits for your skin including reducing wrinkles, and therefore is considered an anti aging tool. And of course, not to mention, it's hypo allergenic....While those are some great facts about silk... we are definitely interested in it for it's supposed energetic and spiritual properties as well.
Silk is said to be used as an energetic shield, it can protect you against negative energies and also has the ability to protect against electro magnetic frequencies. It is believed in Vedic philosophies to be a fiber that can hold high vibrational energy and therefore is good for meditation, ceremonies, and rituals. 🙏
There is always going to be the moral and ethical question on silkworms being sacrificed for the fibers they create, and while we are all about non-violence and mindfulness, at this time it's still the only way to extract silk (hopefully new processes will be engineered soon). Silk worms don't even exist in the wild anymore, they've been bred for silk production for over 5,000 years, they wouldn't be able to survive without humans at this point. We still believe the production of silk to be a far more better option than petroleum based fibers that are toxic to us and the environment. 🌎 We hope that just a few of these reasons could help you to understand why it is that we love and use silk in our designs. is looking vibrationally high in these images, ✨ she's a beautiful soul that works with energy medicine in Bali, check out some of her offerings...
