This mill was founded in the 1950s as a small weaving operation in northeast Italy. Today, this mill focuses on careful resource management and carbon reduction. All production water is filtered and reused. When possible, they use a natural beeswax finishing instead of chemical finishing. They also use solar panels and capture internal heat to convert into power. This mill complies with the following standards: GOTS- Global Organic Textile Standard (GOTS) AZO-Free Dyes Registration, Evaluation, Authorization and Restriction of Chemicals (REACH).
This garment was produced at a family-owned Italian factory. It was initially founded in 1957 as a traditional tailor shop, transitioning to become a factory in 1985. Today it is run by the founder’s daughter and her husband.
Silk is known for its luxurious drape, luster and ability to take rich color. It is the strongest natural fiber and has low density, creating light and comfortable fabric. Silk’s resilient elasticity maintains garment shape, and its smooth surface is resistant to attracting dirt. Silk keeps you cool in warm weather, and provides insulating warmth in cool weather.
