25 metric count silk yarn, 100% mulberry silk

Chirimen silk yarn, also known as oil silk yarn, is made from silk scraps as its raw material. The advantages include good breathability and strong draping properties of silk, while the drawback is the short fiber length of silk scraps.

It is comfortable to wear in summer without sticking to the skin, as oil silk fabric is generally thicker and stiffer compared to other silk types. However, due to the short fiber length of silk scraps and sometimes the presence of other impurities, oil silk typically results in a coarse or linen-like texture. The fabric surface is rough and lacks luster.
