Tracing its history to China, the high maintenance protein thread is known to have draped women for more than 3000 BC. The prismatic molecular structure of the fabric that refracts light has been a hallmark of augustness since and was adorned by Emperors and select few as not only clothes but also ornaments. The brilliance of the texture, the luminance of silk weaves has allured Romans and Persians that flourished the lucrative trade along the length of Silk Road. India being a hub of Silk produce now, a plethora of options are available in the form of Chanderi, Kancheevaram, Mysore, Konrad and finely woven Benarasi Silk with silver and gold zari to name a few.
