Wild silk that's earth-friendly and quietly luxurious. Why Tussar deserves a spot in every wardrobe.

What Is Tussar
Tussar comes from wild silkworms that feed on forest trees, never killed in the process (in Ahimsa Tussar). It has a natural golden-beige base.
Why It's Special
Compared to mulberry silk, Tussar has more texture, more visible weave, and a much smaller environmental footprint.
Style Notes
Tussar pairs beautifully with terracotta jewellery and oxidised silver. Avoid heavy gold — Tussar's earthy charm needs equally earthy accessories.
