This silk is Habotai, an ancient product from China. Sarah's Silks supports the process of silk making because silk is biodegradable and, unlike most other fabrics, its production is actually healthy for the environment. Silk caterpillars eat mulberry leaves so farms have to grow lots of trees to produce silk, and the caterpillars are fed by hand on family farms. Pesticides or chemicals cannot be used while making silk, because the caterpillars are very sensitive, which means that the finished product is 100% natural. Silk making is an ancient tradition that is indigenous to China, and is still an important and celebrated process in Chinese culture today. Sarah's Silks has the pleasure of visiting the facilities where their silks are made, and meeting the skilled people who hand dye and hem their products in the village of Souzhou. Over the past twenty-five years Sarah's Silks has cultivated positive working relationships with silk manufacturers in China, continues to feel positively about working with them, and is confident that the individuals producing their products are being paid a fair and competitive wage.
