Summarized by Shop
Very fine and exceptionally strong, cultivated silk, also called Bombyx silk or mulberry silk, is produced from silk worms in captivity, feed only mulberry leaves. The silk is 10-13 microns and very white. Cultivated silk is both smoother and stronger than Tussah silk, which is produced by silk worms in the wild.
