Vintage Hemp Silkworm Net

Details

This net was used in sericulture, the production of silk through the processing of silkworms. The net would be laid over mulberry leaves, silkworms' food of choice, and when they reached the stage where they were to make their cocoons, the silkworms could be easily transferred, as they were too big to pass through the net.

Mesh is attached to paper-covered wood bars at either end for easy hanging. It could be used to display jewelry or other collections.

Dates from circa 1920, Japan

Please note that we have multiples of this item, and the one you receive may vary slightly in appearance. Some have small holes in the mesh.
