Product Description
Xiangyunsha Silk
Xiangyunsha is commonly known as acanthus silk and cloud yarn. It is an ancient handmade silk fabric dyed with pure plant dyes in China. It is praised as "soft gold" by the textile industry and is also a national intangible cultural heritage. The sericulture and silk reeling industry in Shunde District of Foshan City has a long history. It is known as the "Silk Capital of the South" and has completely preserved the dyeing and finishing techniques of Xiangyunsha.
Xiangyunsha Production Method:
Xiangyunsha is a kind of gauze product made by coating mulberry silk fabric with Dioscorea juice, then covering it with mineral-containing river pond mud, and then exposing it to the sun.
The Color of Xiangyunsha:
The main colors of traditional Xiangyunsha are "black" and "yellow". One side presents a brown "yellow" color with different shades or yellowish or reddish, and the other side presents a brown "black" color that is yellowish or reddish!
Due to the differences in batches of plant dyes, as well as differences in factors such as environment, temperature and humidity, and the difficulty of manual dyeing, the color of each batch of dyed cloth will be different, and it is also common to have multiple colors on one cloth.
Silk quality is graded A, B, or C, with Grade A being the best. Grade A silk is the highest quality long-strand silk from cocoons that are pearly white in color. It is very pure and can be unraveled to great lengths without breaking. In the silk industry, we divide silk into different grades according to its quality. Grade A silk comes in A, 2A, 3A, 4A, 5A, and 6A, with 6A being the highest and finest quality silk.
- Grade 6A: Good silk comes from good silkworm cocoons. The best silkworm cocoons are round, plump, and uniform in size, and the surface color is the same as that of pearls. They are gentle and not dazzling, very clean, and almost free of impurities. Such a good cocoon can extract about 1200 meters of silk. Good silk is crystal clear and translucent, not snow white, but pearl white. When we touch this kind of silk, we will feel "comfort, soft, and slippery", with good air permeability, warm but not dry.
- Grade B: provides lesser comfort and feels slightly rough. It also does not have the luminous natural shine possessed by Grade 6A.
- Grade C: has a yellowish appearance with brown dots. This grade of silk feels like cotton, and it has a rough texture with hardly any natural shine. It has a lumpy feel and is not as breathable as the other two grades of silk.
Momme is a unit of measurement, much like thread count in Cotton. Momme describes the silk’s weight and density. Higher momme means there is more strands of silk per 100 yards of fabric, therefore making the product heavier. Momme can range anywhere from 11-momme to 25-momme.
Higher momme count silk is heavier with a denser weave and thicker individual silk fibers than lower momme count silk. Higher momme count silk is also more costly.

Customer Reviews
★★★★★Beautiful bracelet . Well made They are just so pretty and adding so much positivity in my life
Ilona T.
★★★★★I recently bought the Lotus mala a few days ago and I must say, I am truly impressed and very satisfied with the mala. It comes in a simple box with a pouch. I have been using it for my spiritual practices recently and have noticed some subtle changes in my practice, having energised the mala in a certain way. Convinced by it's authenticity, I am likely to buy another specific mala soon.
Buddha Stones customer service has exceeded my expectations and am very impressed by the level of service!Goutham N.
