Material & Origin

SHULIANG SILK

OXBLOOD

100% SILK

A TRADITIONAL FABRIC FROM SOUTHERN CHINA OF SILK THAT HAS GONE THROUGH AN ELABORATE PROCESS OF NATURAL DYEING AND OXIDATION, LENDING IT A METALLIC SHEEN. THE MEASURED PROCESS INVOLVES DYEING THE FABRIC REPEATEDLY WITH THE TANNIN-RICH YELLOW AND RED JUICE OF THE LOCAL SHULIANG YARN AND EXTENSIVE SUN EXPOSURE ON OPEN FIELDS.


A traditional silk fabric from southern China.

The fabric is dyed multiple times with the tannin-rich sap of the sap plant, then exposed to sunlight in the open air to oxidize repeatedly, before being reacted with iron-rich river mud in a time-consuming process that results in a deep oxblood color and a subtle metallic luster.

This is a special fabric that has a soft texture and a strength that deepens with time.
