Yamamay Lingerie Donna

yamamay

“The Yamamay silkworm is found in the high hills of inland Japan. Wild by nature, it lives only in oak trees or on cut branches kept green by contact with a source of pure, fresh water.

Well-known from the sixteenth century for the quality of the silk produced during its long larval phase (lasting from 50 to 80 days), it produces a cocoon with silver and crystal reflections.

The butterfly is stunningly beautiful: the green, velvet body is endowed with two magnificent, shimmering violet wings which blend into shades of red and copper.

(Written by Achille Provasi: “Spinning and twisting of silk and its waste”, edited by Ulrico Hoepli 1923, Milan)
