Introduction

Hello silk lovers! My name is Vicky and I am so glad you have found my little corner of the internet devoted to my greatest love, silk.

I started SilkPedia.com to share my lifelong passion for silk with others who appreciate its beauty, versatility, and luxurious feel as much as I do.

There are no products to sell here; this blog is simply about telling the stories of my journey with silk over the years and connecting with other silk enthusiasts.

I hope that you will be inspired by my tales and that you will also share your own experiences with silk.

My Journey with Silk

As a little girl, I was fascinated by silk when my grandmother allowed me to touch her collection of exotic silk scarves from her travels.

The feeling of those smooth, flowing fabrics slipping through my fingers is something I will never forget. That was it!

Throughout my childhood, I sought out all things made of silk, from ribbons for my hair to embroidered pillowcases.

One of the most treasured possessions in my life remains a dress made of silk that was given to me on my 16th birthday. It made me feel so elegant and confident.

Another memorable moment was thrifting for vintage kimonos which led to collecting rare finds. My collection has grown exponentially over the years through travel, study, and scouring antique shops for silks.

Expertise and Experience

Over the past twenty years, I have immersed myself in silk to gain vast amounts of knowledge even though I am not a professional.

My collection includes various types of silk clothing as well as home accessories such as weaves from different cultures and different eras.

I am always eager to learn more about silk, its production techniques, cultural implications, maintenance requirements, and leaders in the field.

The Blog’s Mission

The purpose of this blog is to share all that I have learned in my many years with other devotees of silk fabric.

I want to encourage others to appreciate the timeless elegance and adaptability inherent in silk while connecting with others who share my passion.

However, there are times when I will also be sharing my own experiences and snippets that I have found elsewhere online.

Please feel free to join me by commenting with your stories or advice about silk. Let’s unite so that together we can remember the magic of silk!

Personal Side

Apart from adventures around the silken world, I like engaging in gardening, cooking, hiking, and collecting vintage jewelry.

I want a peaceful life with no rush but attention paid to tiny things that most people ignore.

My love for silk reflects this approach; it teaches me how to value finer things through deliberate sense experiences.

Contact Information

I hope my blog inspires you and introduces you to new aspects of silk. For any other matter, don’t hesitate to email me or contact me via social media – I would really love to get along with silk enthusiasts.
