How do I wash my Playsilks?
We recommend hand washing with mild dish soap or shampoo, then hang to dry and iron on medium heat if you want to restore the shine. Little ones enjoy the tactile experience of wet silk. Washing and hang drying their Playsilks is a nice chore to include them in.
Are Playsilks safe?
All of our toys including the materials and dyes they are made of, have passed safety testing for children. Playsilks and most of our toys are safe for children of all ages - see each product listing for specific age recommendations on each toy.
What weight is your silk?
Our solid and enchanted Playsilks are 5 momme, which is light and airy. Our illustrated playsilks, dress-ups, toys, and baby blankets are 8 momme which is heavier weight silk, but still comfortable and breathable for little ones.
Why are your silks made in China?
Our silk is Habotai, an ancient product from China. We support the process of silk making because silk is biodegradable and, unlike most other fabrics, its production is actually healthy for the environment! Silk caterpillars eat mulberry leaves so farms have to grow lots of trees to produce silk, and the caterpillars are fed by hand on family farms. Pesticides or chemicals cannot be used while making silk, because the caterpillars are very sensitive, which means that the finished product is 100% natural. Silk caterpillars eat mulberry leaves so farms have to grow lots of trees to produce silk, and the caterpillars are fed by hand on family farms. Silk making is an ancient tradition that is indigenous to China, and is still an important and celebrated process in Chinese culture today. We have had the pleasure of visiting the facilities where our silks are made, and meeting the skilled people who hand dye and hem our products in the village of Souzhou. Over the past twenty-five years we have cultivated positive working relationships with silk manufacturers in China, and we continue to feel positively about working with them and are confident that the individuals producing our products are being paid a fair and competitive wage.
