Know before you buy
Peace silk, or Ahimsa silk, is harvested after the silk moth has naturally emerged from its cocoon. This ensures no harm comes to the silkworms, resulting in a more sustainable, ethically sourced fiber compared to traditional silk production.
Because these are a blend of Peace silk and cotton, they offer a unique, gently textured hand-feel. They are breathable and lightweight at 105 GSM, providing a more artisanal, organic drape than mass-produced cotton linens.
Yes, because the fabric is undyed and handcrafted in small batches, slight variations in the natural cream tone are expected. This is a hallmark of the authentic, hand-loomed process and adds to the unique character of each set.
These napkins are designed for daily use, but due to the delicate nature of handwoven Peace silk and cotton, we recommend gentle hand washing or a delicate machine cycle. Air drying is best to maintain the integrity of the fibers and the texture of the weave.
A 105 GSM weight indicates a lightweight, breathable fabric that is easy to fold and drape elegantly on a table. It provides enough substance for practical use while maintaining the soft, airy aesthetic characteristic of hand-loomed textiles.
