The Ultimate Guide to Mulberry Silk

At Sielk, we’re passionate about offering high-quality silk products that combine luxury, beauty, and practicality. From sleep eye masks to pillowcases and scrunchies, each item is crafted with the finest Mulberry Silk to give you an indulgent experience.

But what exactly is Mulberry Silk, and how does the momme (pronounced mom-ee) weight—19, 22, or 30—impact your choices?

Let’s explore.

What Is Mulberry Silk?

Mulberry silk is considered the finest and most luxurious type of silk in the world. It’s made from the cocoons of the Bombyx mori silkworm, which feeds exclusively on Mulberry leaves. This results in:

  • Unparalleled Smoothness: Mulberry silk is incredibly soft and delicate against the skin.

  • Exceptional Durability: Its long, continuous fibers create a stronger and longer-lasting fabric compared to other silks.

  • Hypoallergenic Benefits: Naturally resistant to dust mites, mold, and allergens, making it ideal for sensitive skin.

  • Eco-Friendliness: The cultivation of Mulberry silk is a sustainable process with minimal environmental impact.

At Sielk, we only use 100% Mulberry Silk to ensure every product delivers the best in quality and comfort.

What Is Momme, and Why Does It Matter?

Momme (mm) is a measurement of the density and weight of silk fabric. It’s a key indicator of silk’s quality, affecting its feel, durability, and luxury.

19 Momme Silk

  • Products:

    • Sleep Eye Masks

    • Silk Scrunchies

  • Why We Use It:
    19 momme silk is lightweight, breathable, and perfect for products that need to feel ultra-soft and delicate. For eye masks, it ensures a gentle touch on your skin. For scrunchies, it protects your hair from friction and breakage while remaining light and easy to use.

  • Best For:

    • Individuals who want soft, skin-friendly accessories and lightweight sleep products.

22 Momme Silk

  • Products:

    • Pillowcases (Standard Option)

  • Why We Use It:
    22 momme silk strikes the ideal balance between durability and softness, making it perfect for everyday items like pillowcases. It’s smooth enough to protect your skin and hair while being strong enough to last with regular use.

  • Best For:

    • Customers looking for premium silk pillowcases that are luxurious yet practical for daily use.

30 Momme Silk

  • Products:

    • Pillowcases (Luxury Option)

  • Why We Use It:
    30 momme silk is exceptionally thick and durable, offering the ultimate luxury experience. It has a heavier, more premium feel, making it the perfect choice for those who want long-lasting silk with a truly indulgent touch.

  • Best For:

    • Those seeking a high-end, ultra-durable pillowcase for an elevated sleeping experience.

Why Sielk’s Mulberry Silk Stands Out

Each Sielk product is thoughtfully designed to provide:

  • Skin & Hair Benefits: Reduced friction to prevent wrinkles, frizz, and breakage.

  • Temperature Regulation: Mulberry silk keeps you cool in summer and warm in winter.

  • Sustainability: By choosing silk, you’re supporting a renewable and eco-friendly material.

Whether it’s the lightweight elegance of our scrunchies or the luxurious feel of our 30 momme pillowcases, Sielk’s Mulberry Silk products are made to transform your sleep and self-care routine.
