Mulberry silk is a type of silk that is widely regarded as the finest and highest quality silk available. It is produced by the silkworms of the Bombyx mori moth, which feed exclusively on the leaves of mulberry trees. The name “mulberry silk” comes from this specific diet.

During sericulture, the cocoons are immersed in hot water to soften the silk fibers and dissolve the natural gum called sericin that holds the cocoon together. The softened silk fibers are then unwound and spun into silk threads, which can be used for weaving or knitting into various textiles.
