This listing is for 10 Cut Silk Cocoons

Colour Sludgy Aquamarine - Subtle and subdued tones of Aquamarine.

The photograph is representational only.

The cocoon is spun by the silkworm in one continuous thread almost a mile long. The cocoons vary in size. Most of them are an oval shape with a hole cut in them. Each individual cocoon measures approximately 2cm - 3cm (0.75" - 1.25") long and they are quite rigid.

They can be cut easily with scissors or a craft knife, dyed, painted and sewn, used in jewellery making, mixed media projects and embellishments.

All our products are dyed in a smoke free and pet free environment.

We thoroughly rinse and scour our products of residual dye, but they cannot be guaranteed colourfast.

We always try to portray our colours as accurately as possible, but please be aware that different monitors display colours in different ways.
