Silk and Colour

35 years experience at your fingertips. Silk and Colour begins with "Health and Safety" when dealing with manufacturing and colouring silk fabric. Then the silk economy today, it's history, how it is made and the aftercare. Next an introduction to dye printed images, various print techniques and dyeing the fabric and then touches a little on painting. A list of dye groups and UK suppliers of dye powders, auxiliaries and fabrics. Also a list of UK companies to print for you. It is intended as an introduction for a student or to give extra ideas to an expert. Then sections for sourcing raw materials and equipment. The publication touches on other natural fabrics, not just silk.
