I visited one of my favorite suppliers of high quality silks and purchased a selection of beautiful tweeds at a great price! This is an exquisite plaid silk tweed basketweave woven, closely woven and opaque, with a rustic look. The pattern of thicker and thinner yarns creates a gorgeous texture and tweedy look. Multicolored, mixing brilliant tones with black and a variegated light neutral, this silk plaid is a stunning cloth. Both sides are the same, and the colors and the texture much more rich and vibrant in real life! Suiting or coating weight, make a standout jacket or coat. Dry cleaning recommended.
