Tussar Silk Denim Fabric — 58” Wide, 370 GSM

This heavyweight Tussar twill silk fabric is a richly structured wild silk textile with a dense body, natural texture, and refined artisanal character. Woven from Tussar silk, the fabric carries the distinctive beauty of wild silk: a subtly uneven surface, organic slub movement, and a quiet natural sheen rather than a glossy, polished shine.

The twill weave gives the cloth added strength, diagonal surface movement, and a more substantial hand than plain-weave silks. At 370 GSM, this is a true heavyweight silk with presence, structure, and a grounded drape. It feels luxurious without being delicate, making it especially suitable for statement garments, tailored silhouettes, textile art, and premium interiors.

Tussar silk is known for its slightly textured hand, breathable feel, and earthy elegance. This fabric is ideal for designs where the material itself carries visual weight — refined, slow-made, and naturally expressive.

Wash & Care

Dry clean recommended for best results.
For sewing or dyeing projects, test a swatch first.

As with many natural wild silks, slight slubs, tonal variation, and surface irregularities are part of the fabric’s character and should not be considered defects.
