Chuxiong Silk

　　        Silk produced in Chuxiong is known for its exquisite craftsmanship, smooth luster, and beautiful patterns, enjoying an excellent reputation both in domestic and international markets. The Chuxiong Silk Factory offers over 30 varieties of products, including satin, taffeta, voile, plain soft silk, colored thread, silk cotton quilts, and meili silk. Among them, the “Plum Blossom Brand” white raw silk won the “Provincial Premium” product title in 1981. The “Red Camellia Brand” soft satin quilt cover features novel patterns and vibrant colors with a unique style, and has been awarded the “Provincial Premium” title four consecutive times since 1981. Various types of crepe satin and jacquard crepe produced in 1987 are all woven from pure silk, crafted with strict techniques. These products have a soft sheen, are crisp yet wrinkle-free, lightweight and smooth—making them high-end items among silks. Series such as silk-cotton blends, silk-bamboo blends, and silk-polyester blends offer characteristics such as stiffness, good elasticity, wrinkle resistance, and breathability. Designed with different textures for each of the four seasons—spring, summer, autumn, and winter—they are highly favored by consumers.
