Celebrate the year of silk

Discovery in 3,000 BC in China silk has always been one of the most precious, noble and elegant fabric, to the point that the garments made with this fabric were reserved for years exclusively to Chinese emperors.
Worked in Europe since the 16th Century, starting in the 19th Century it has become a fashion fabric, used by the bourgeoisie for clothing and furnishings.
Until the First World War, Italy was the cradle of highly prized works.
Thing of the past? Absolutely not!
