Xiangyunsha is a silk that's not only incredibly soft but also eco-friendly and antibacterial. It's giving modern synthetics a run for their money.

This is the intricate process behind this legendary fabric. From soaking and drying, to the unique rusty hue achieved through a special reaction involving a specific river mud in China and local yams—each step adds to the charm of what has become known as "soft gold."

We meet Liang Zhu, a local artisan with a wealth of knowledge about the rich history and cultural significance of Xiangyunsha. But these techniques aren't just passed down—they're carefully taught and honed through generations of skilled artisans. We're unravelling the secrets and wonders of Xiangyunsha, an ancient silk dying technique that has been solidified as part of China's cultural heritage.
