Real 100% pure silk ribbon, sewn end to end to make a continuous ribbon
This is a silk ribbon from Fair Trade in India where the women tear strips of fabric from sari remnants and then sew the strips (or occasionally tie) end to end to create one continuous length of ribbon. It is not from old sari, it is from new sari fabric leftovers.
