Well, I am really interested if you succeed to get a 100% silk velvet. Me and
my sister import silk fabrics from China to EU and we visited several factories
that were specialized in making silk velvets, but they told us they only do
rayon pile and silk backing, no matter what amount of meters you offer.
Another interesting issue is that if you don't buy directly from a factory, the
dealer are able to tell you anything - they claim a polyester to be silk and so
on. So if you're not very skilled at recognizing silk, you may be cheated. And
maybe...some companies don't realize or realize too late. So, beware. We always
check our fabrics for weight and silk percentage.
