Raw Silk can be mistaken for a simple course cotton...but it is really a type of silk that still has some natural gum left in it... This gives it a soft texture but course feel...If you are traveling in Asia or India you may come across this fabric called : "Raw Silk"... it is also called : "Shantung"
It can be dyed...and is used to make many types of light clothing... Its harder to produce and is therefore not cheap...
Its rough texture is its attraction... Its often used for Men's Ties or scarves...
