In China, the best silk usually refers to high-grade silk fabrics, such as 100% mulberry silk and 100% tussah silk. These high-grade silk fabrics have the characteristics of soft texture, high gloss and comfortable feel, and are ideal materials for making high-grade clothing and household items.
Among the best silks, mulberry silk is the most common one. Mulberry silk is a kind of slender fiber extracted from silkworm cocoon extracted from mulberry, which can be made into various silk products after processing. Mulberry silk is known as the "king of silk" because of its soft texture, high gloss and good air permeability. In addition, tussah silk is also a high-grade silk fabric, which is softer and smoother than mulberry silk, but the output is less and the price is relatively high.
Besides mulberry silk and tussah silk, there are some other high-grade silk fabrics, such as castor silk and cassava silk. Although these fabrics are not as common as mulberry silk and tussah silk, they also have certain market value and collection value.
