CNGM FAQ
How to Choose Silk Products?
There are several types of silk, including mulberry silk, tussah silk, Eri silk, and Muga silk. Mulberry silk is the most common and highest quality, known for its softness and shine. Tussah silk is coarser and has a more natural tan color. Eri silk is durable and has a matte finish, while Muga silk is golden and very rare.
How can I identify genuine silk?Genuine silk has a smooth, soft texture and a natural sheen. When you rub it, it produces a subtle crunching sound known as the "silk sound." Additionally, a burn test can help: genuine silk will burn slowly and smell like burning hair, leaving behind a black, powdery ash.
What should I look for in silk fabric quality?Check for a smooth, consistent weave without any pulls or knots. High-quality silk should have a uniform luster and feel soft to the touch. The momme weight (mm) also indicates quality; higher momme weight means thicker and more durable silk.
Is there a difference between silk and satin?Yes, there is a difference. Silk is a natural fiber produced by silkworms, while satin refers to a weave pattern that can be made from various fibers, including silk, polyester, and nylon. Silk satin is more luxurious and breathable compared to synthetic satin.
How should I care for my silk products?Silk is delicate and should be hand-washed or machine-washed on a gentle cycle using cold water and a mild detergent. Avoid wringing or twisting the fabric; instead, press out excess water with a towel and lay it flat to dry. Keep silk out of direct sunlight to prevent fading.
What are some common uses for silk products?Silk is used in a variety of products, including clothing (dresses, blouses, scarves), bedding (sheets, pillowcases), and accessories (ties, handkerchiefs). It is also popular for its beauty benefits in items like silk pillowcases and hair wraps.
Why is silk considered hypoallergenic?Silk is naturally hypoallergenic because it is resistant to dust mites, mold, and mildew. This makes it an excellent choice for people with allergies or sensitive skin.
Are there ethical considerations when buying silk?Yes, consider looking for ethically produced silk, such as peace silk or Ahimsa silk, which is made without harming the silkworms. Additionally, check for certifications like Global Organic Textile Standard (GOTS) to ensure sustainable and ethical production practices.
How does silk benefit skin and hair?Silk's smooth surface causes less friction on the skin and hair compared to other fabrics, reducing the chances of wrinkles and hair breakage. It also helps retain moisture, making it a popular choice for pillowcases and hair accessories.
Can silk be dyed, and does it retain color well?Silk can be dyed easily and retains color vibrantly. However, it's important to use gentle detergents and avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight to maintain its color over time.
What is the price range for quality silk products?The price of silk products can vary widely based on the type of silk, momme weight, and craftsmanship. Generally, high-quality silk products are more expensive, but they offer better durability and a luxurious feel.
Where can I buy high-quality silk products?You can purchase high-quality silk products from specialty stores, online retailers, and luxury brands that focus on silk. Look for reviews and product details to ensure you are getting genuine and high-quality silk.
Choosing Silk Products: Which Region to Select?
Choosing Silk Products: Which Region to Select?
Why should I consider Chinese silk products?China is the birthplace of silk and has a history of silk production spanning over 5,000 years.

- Sichuan:Produces unique types of silk, including the rare Shujin silk, known for its distinct patterns and textures.
- Guangdong:Known for its high-quality silk used in traditional garments and modern fashion.
Silk from these regions is special due to the combination of traditional techniques, high-quality raw materials, and meticulous craftsmanship. Each region has its unique style and method of production, contributing to the diversity and richness of Chinese silk.
Are there any historical records supporting the quality of Chinese silk?Yes, Chinese silk has been highly valued throughout history. The Silk Road, which dates back to around 200 BCE, was a major trade route that facilitated the exchange of silk between China and the rest of the world. Chinese silk was prized by emperors and aristocrats in ancient Rome, Greece, and Egypt, highlighting its longstanding reputation for excellence.
What are the quality standards for Chinese silk?Chinese silk products adhere to strict quality standards, such as:
- Sericulture:The process of raising silkworms is carefully controlled to ensure high-quality silk fibers.
- Reeling and Weaving:Advanced techniques are used to reel silk fibers and weave them into fabric, maintaining consistency and strength.
- Dyeing and Finishing:Natural dyes and modern finishing processes are used to enhance the color and texture of the silk.
The long history of silk production in China has led to a wealth of knowledge and expertise passed down through generations. Modern silk producers in China continue to innovate while preserving traditional methods, resulting in silk products that combine historical elegance with contemporary quality.
What are some famous types of Chinese silk?- Mulberry Silk:The most common and highest quality silk, produced primarily in Zhejiang and Jiangsu provinces.
- Tussah Silk:A coarser, naturally tan silk produced in the northern provinces.
- Eri Silk:Known for its durability and matte finish, produced in the southwestern provinces.
- Muga Silk:A rare, golden-colored silk from the northeastern regions.
Look for certifications such as the China Silk Mark, which indicates the product meets national standards for silk quality. Additionally, international certifications like the Global Organic Textile Standard (GOTS) can also be a sign of high-quality and ethically produced silk.
How can I ensure I'm buying authentic Chinese silk?To ensure authenticity, purchase from reputable sellers and brands known for their silk products. Check for quality indicators such as smooth texture, natural sheen, and the characteristic "silk sound" when rubbed. Avoid products that seem too cheap, as they may be synthetic or of lower quality.
What are some traditional Chinese silk products to consider?Traditional Chinese silk products include qipaos (cheongsams), embroidered silk scarves, brocade fabrics, and silk paintings. These items not only showcase the beauty of Chinese silk but also carry cultural significance and artistic value.
By considering the region of production and historical background, you can make an informed decision when selecting high-quality Chinese silk products.
Why Should Silk Scarves Have Hand-Rolled Edges?
Why Should Silk Scarves Have Hand-Rolled Edges?
What are hand-rolled edges on a silk scarf?Hand-rolled edges are a traditional finishing technique where the edges of the silk fabric are meticulously rolled and stitched by hand. This process creates a delicate, slightly rounded edge that enhances the overall elegance and durability of the scarf.
Why are hand-rolled edges considered superior?Hand-rolled edges are considered superior because they add a touch of luxury and craftsmanship to the scarf. This technique ensures a smooth and refined finish that machine-stitched edges cannot match. It also demonstrates the care and skill involved in creating a high-quality silk scarf.
How do hand-rolled edges affect the appearance of a silk scarf?Hand-rolled edges give the silk scarf a seamless and polished look. The edges appear softer and more fluid, allowing the scarf to drape beautifully. This finishing touch enhances the overall aesthetic, making the scarf look more elegant and sophisticated.
Do hand-rolled edges improve the durability of a silk scarf?Yes, hand-rolled edges can improve the durability of a silk scarf. The careful rolling and stitching process helps to prevent fraying and unraveling, which can occur with machine-stitched edges. This technique ensures that the scarf maintains its shape and quality over time.
Is there a historical significance to hand-rolled edges?Hand-rolled edges have a long history in textile craftsmanship. This technique has been used for centuries to finish luxury fabrics, including silk. It reflects a tradition of meticulous handwork and attention to detail, which has been passed down through generations of artisans.
How can I identify a silk scarf with hand-rolled edges?To identify a hand-rolled edge, look closely at the edge of the scarf. You should see a fine, slightly rounded edge with small, even stitches. The stitches are often barely visible, blending seamlessly with the fabric. Additionally, the edge will feel soft and flexible, unlike the stiff edges of machine-stitched scarves.
Are all high-quality silk scarves hand-rolled?While many high-quality silk scarves feature hand-rolled edges, not all do. However, hand-rolled edges are often a hallmark of luxury and artisanal scarves. They indicate a higher level of craftsmanship and attention to detail, which is typical of premium silk products.
Do hand-rolled edges add to the cost of a silk scarf?Yes, hand-rolled edges can add to the cost of a silk scarf. The process is labor-intensive and requires skilled artisans to execute properly. However, the added cost is often justified by the superior quality, durability, and aesthetic appeal that hand-rolled edges provide.
How should I care for a silk scarf with hand-rolled edges?To care for a silk scarf with hand-rolled edges, hand wash it gently in cold water with a mild detergent. Avoid wringing or twisting the scarf, as this can damage the delicate edges. Instead, press out excess water with a towel and lay the scarf flat to dry. Iron on a low setting if necessary, avoiding direct contact with the edges.
Why should I choose a silk scarf with hand-rolled edges over a machine-stitched one?Choosing a silk scarf with hand-rolled edges is a decision to invest in quality and craftsmanship. Hand-rolled edges provide a more refined and elegant finish, enhance the scarf's durability, and reflect a tradition of skilled handwork. This choice ensures that you are purchasing a piece that not only looks beautiful but also stands the test of time.
By understanding the benefits and significance of hand-rolled edges, you can appreciate the artistry and quality that goes into creating a truly luxurious silk scarf.

- Firing: The pieces are fired in a kiln at high temperatures. The firing process creates the characteristic glaze and crazing patterns.
5. How can I identify authentic Ru kiln porcelain?
Authenticating Ru kiln porcelain requires expertise, but some key indicators include:
- Glaze color: Genuine Ru ware has a bluish-green glaze with a jade-like quality.
- Crazing: Look for fine, crackled patterns in the glaze.
