Made from wild Tussar silk, the yarn retains its organic irregularities, creating a surface that is alive with subtle slubs, striations, and tonal depth.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe fabric is naturally dyed, allowing the silk to absorb color in a way that enhances its inherent texture rather than masking it. The result is a warm, nuanced shade with soft variation—never flat, never synthetic-looking.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe paper finish is achieved by starching and drying the fabric under tension, a heritage technique that gives the silk its sculptural body and rustling, architectural feel. At 130 GSM, it is lightweight yet surprisingly structured, making it ideal for garments and textiles that need form, volume, and crisp drape without heaviness.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThis textile is especially prized by designers for garments that require shape and elegance—such as statement jackets, sculptural dresses, pleated silhouettes, overlays, panels, and ceremonial or couture pieces.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003cbr\u003e\nFiber Content: 100% Tussar Silk (Wild Silk)\u003cbr\u003e\nWeave: Handwoven plain weave\u003cbr\u003e\nFinish: Starched paper finish\u003cbr\u003e\nDye: Naturally dyed\u003cbr\u003e\nWidth: 44 inches\u003cbr\u003e\nWeight: 130 GSM (lightweight with crisp body)\u003cbr\u003e\nSurface: Slightly textured, luminous, structured\u003cbr\u003e\nTransparency: Semi-opaque\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eHandfeel \u0026amp; Drape\u003cbr\u003e\nHandfeel: Crisp, papery, dry to the touch with a natural silk grain\u003cbr\u003e\nDrape: Structured and architectural; holds folds, pleats, and shapes beautifully\u003cbr\u003e\nTexture: Lightly slubbed with organic wild-silk irregularities\u003cbr\u003e\nSound \u0026amp; Movement: Subtle silk rustle, enhancing the couture feel\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eBest Uses\u003cbr\u003e\nCouture garments, sculptural dresses, pleated skirts, jackets, ceremonial wear, overlays, panels, stoles, art textiles, slow fashion, and statement pieces that benefit from crisp structure and natural silk beauty.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"ZAN ","offers":[{"title":"1 yard \/ Gold","offer_id":43038356963441,"sku":"1200","price":67.26,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"1 yard \/ Brown","offer_id":43038356996209,"sku":"1200","price":67.26,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"3 yards \/ Gold","offer_id":43038357028977,"sku":"1200","price":190.57,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"3 yards \/ Brown","offer_id":43038357061745,"sku":"1200","price":190.57,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"5 yards \/ Gold","offer_id":43038357094513,"sku":"1200","price":306.75,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"5 yards \/ Brown","offer_id":43038357127281,"sku":"1200","price":306.75,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"10 yards \/ Gold","offer_id":43038357160049,"sku":"1200","price":578.84,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"10 yards \/ Brown","offer_id":43038357192817,"sku":"1200","price":578.84,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0570\/5334\/7953\/files\/imgi_186_il_fullxfull.7683557485_3d3i.jpg?v=1781161183","url":"https:\/\/thezanhouse.com\/products\/handwoven-naturally-dyed-tussar-silk-paper-finish-fabric-starched-silk-130-gsm-44-wide","provider":"ZAN ","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
