Why Mysore Silk Is Called Mulberry Silk ?

Mysore silk is known as mulberry silk because of its exceptional smoothness. The silkworms that produce this silk feed exclusively on mulberry leaves. This diet creates fibers that are finer, softer, and more uniform than any other variety of silk.

The result is a fabric with a naturally silky touch, graceful drape, and enduring shine. This refinement is not added through processing or polishing. It begins at the source.

The smoothness of Mysore silk is born from the mulberry leaf itself.
