Lotus Silk Is One Of The Most Expensive Fabrics In The World

[@emiltuban7440]

We used to have that also in the Philippines (in my community) but it disappeared because the ponds where the lotus grows were filled and constructed with buildings. Indeed it is best harvested in monsoon season because it produces more sap and it's more stronger and not in hot season and the sap that it produces is brittle.

So... It looks like linen but is wrinkle resistant! Who here loves the look of linen but cannot stand the severe creasing? 🙋‍♀️

[@JustMe54328]

I agree with u, but linen absorbs sweat well and for someone who lives in a tropical climate, it’s a boon

[@icedcoldkilla]

You think 200$ a yard is expensive? Imagine how expensive it would be if it was made in the U.S

[@trainerkai1313]

Probably like 5 grand at least.

[@icedcoldkilla]

@@trainerkai1313 2 months of labor for a scarf with 20 people,rent insurances,taxes,corporate salaries. Nahhhh no way just 5 grand.

[@skullemoji2]

lol true

[@icedcoldkilla]

@Sir Vaugh i never focus on brand. But more on quality. Gucci uses top grain which is not as good as full grain. I feel like you are paying more for the brand than the material. I do like italian dress shoes like acemarks they arent too expensive in the 250$ range.

It's just that compared to silk , it's harder to pull silk. The remaining lotus silk has an easier job than silk. Silkworms are difficult to take care of, need mulberry fields and clean them regularly.

[@missgunst4152]

When there are 40000 needed for 1m of silk, that would mean: that one sting of lotus produces 25 Micrometer of fabric. That’s totally unrealistic.

[@sasha.desade2702]

Wow ur smart never would of that

[@finntran1672]

I think they meant 1m2

[@crewmatewillthrowthesehand7600]

That's why it's mostly used for religious weaving in an annual ceremony in Myanmar. Otherwise, it's only for small items like scarves.

[@samsungemployee5243]

No you need that much to achieve the thickness for one meter

[@dominicthomas7518]

Actually , all of these things known as " LUXURIES" are in fact free. The only thing is that some find it and market it at a price. Remember , " The Kingdom of Heaven belongs to the Poor. " This the real Richest are the Poor itself.

It looks like burlap, and honestly only strikes me as valued due to rarity, not so much quality. We already have soft fibers, breathable fibers, stretchy fibers, and wrinkle resistant fibers. All of which are dramatically easier to acquire, and use while being cheaper. Kinda like making a shirt out of typha fiber (cattail plant) than selling that for $1000 due to rarity, and calling it too "silk" to suggest prestigious value. I don't see this taking off just due to it being a scarcity market, pretty hard pressed to imagine we have nothing that can't beat Lotus "silk' in all properties, and characteristics.

Lotus silk is more expensive but much harder to yield.. So people are moving towards spider-web silk .. It easy durable and you don't have to kill silkworms in the process.
