Noil Silk

Silk noil is from silk waste and has a nubby feel and a low sheen. The nubby texture of noil comes from the use of very short fibers, called 'silk noils,' to weave the fabric. When these short fibers are spun into yarns, the resulting yarns have occasional slubs and loose ends.

Not our regular item but we can make upon the customized designs.
