Is that the same as silk habotai?  Dharma Trading Co. is a great source for 
inexpensive silk.  You get a greater discount when you buy in bulk bolts.

  China silk is very thin, though not sheer, silk that moves and flutters with 
the slightest breeze. It's shiny and slick.

In Balenchine's ballet of "Orpheus" [Stravinsky] when the "Dark Angel" and 
Orpheus are traveling between the world of the living and the Underworld, a 
china silk curtain descends. It is amazing to behold..it floats down like a 
cloud. And then lights are brought up behind its shimmering undulating surface. 
The effect is like a scrim but not as crisp.
