Silkwell supplies raw mulberry silk fabric — greige and dyed — to garment makers, printers and private-label brands that cut and sew in-house. Every lot is 6A grade, 100% mulberry silk, controlled from cocoon selection through reeling and weaving.
Momme is a weight measure, not a thickness: it describes how much a fixed area of fabric weighs. For sourcing, the practical question is which weight survives your end product.
| Weight | Typical use | What changes |
|---|---|---|
| 16 momme | Scarves, linings, light sleepwear | Sheer, drapes easily, needs careful handling when cutting |
| 19 momme | Pillowcases, eye masks, shirt-weight apparel | The default for most accessory programmes |
| 22 momme | Bedding, robes, structured dresses | Heavier hand, less see-through, holds shape |
| 30 momme | Heavyweight bedding, couture | Substantial body, higher cost per metre |
Width is usually quoted as usable width after finishing, not loom width — confirm which figure your supplier is using, because a 140cm loom width can finish nearer 132cm. Shrinkage matters more: greige silk can move a few percent on the first wash. If you are cutting to a fixed finished dimension, ask for pre-shrunk finishing or add allowance to your marker rather than adjusting after the first bulk run.
Send the momme, the usable width, the finish (raw, washed, dyed) and the colour reference. A 1–3 metre cut is enough to test hand feel, drape and how the fabric behaves on your machine. If you are matching an existing fabric, a 20cm swatch plus the spec is faster than describing it.
Can you dye to a Pantone reference? Yes — lab dips first, then bulk dyeing after approval.
Do you supply by the metre or by the roll? Both; tell us your target quantity and we will quote accordingly.
Send your weight, width and monthly volume, and we will come back with a specification and a quotation.
