Mulberry Silk Fabric with Matte Black Coating for Luggage
This mulberry silk fabric is supplied to a written specification so that reorders match the approved sample. The fabric construction is fixed at quotation stage — base material, the matte black coating surface, the 320 gsm and the packing — and held on file, which is what keeps luggage consistent across seasons instead of drifting with whatever the mill happens to have in stock.
The usual reason buyers come to us is not price. It is reorders that quietly changed supplier and changed the hand feel, or an interlining that bubbled after the first press. Both are preventable once the specification is written down before bulk starts.
