Project Description
A truly unique silk product, created with dyes made from the mac nua (Diospyros mollis) fruit, a kind of wood tree, and water, comes from Tan Chau silk village in southern Vietnam about 300 kilometers from Ho Chi Minh City.
Lan My A silk is made from only the best silk threads, and this is why it is glossy. The silk fabric must be dipped into the dyeing solution about 100 times to absorb the color completely, and prevent it from fading over time. The dyeing process takes about 40 days, and is considered the most important step of the production.
Besides the traditional black dye, Tan Chau silk makers have developed other natural dyeing techniques to generate different colors in order to meet every customer’s requirements.
