DUPION silk
This shimmering and lustrous silk is wowen from two different cocoons that has been nestled together. Also spelled ”Douppioni” or ”dupion”, the name is a corruption of the Italian ”duplicato” meaning ”duplicate”. The slightly tangled cocoons cause the resulting silk to seemingly change its hue in different light. It takes easily dye, and is usually produced in bright shades, enchancing it´s beautiful iridescence. It has a crisp drape and a slightly pebbled texture.

The dupion in dusty pink has a black warp a soft pink weft, the greyish blue dupion has the same shade in both warp and weft.

Dupion, dusty pink.

Dupion, blue.
