Tussah Silk is also called Tussar silk. Tussah silk is a type of wild silk produced by Antheraea silkworms, primarily found in India and other part of South Asia. It has long been valued for its silky, soft texture and natural golden color. However, this is Tussah silk that has been bleached white from its natural warm tan color so that it can be used as a white silk or dyed with acid or natural dyes.

Tussah silk is considered more textured than cultivated Mulberry silk. The staple length is 4" versus the several inch length of Mulberry silk.

Apparently Tussah silk is even added to soap for a more luxurious feeling!
