THE ESSENCE OF SOMNELA
Mulberry silk, in all its authenticity.
Natural, delicate and luminous, mulberry silk embodies a particular vision of luxury: a precious material whose beauty is revealed through touch.
At SOMNELA, we have chosen 22 momme, Grade 6A mulberry silk to bring together softness, substance and elegance in our everyday essentials.
An exceptional material. A thoughtful choice.
THE ORIGIN OF AN EXCEPTIONAL MATERIAL
From cocoon to silk.
It all begins with the silkworm Bombyx mori, raised on mulberry leaves. It spins a cocoon made from a long natural filament.
Carefully reeled, the filaments are combined into threads, then woven into a fabric known for its distinctive softness and subtle sheen.
An ancestral craft at the heart of our creations.
