Court ladies preparing newly woven silk in China (1082-1135). The luxurious fibres of silk are synonymous with China and Japan, and more generally the Far East as a whole. The production of silk in China goes back to Neolithic times, over six thousand years ago, and the country is still by far the biggest makers and exporters of this exquisite fibre. Famously, the Silk Road trading route opened up Asian silk markets to markets in Europe. But did you know that there is a silk industry right here in England?
