ABOUT SILKINC
Silkinc’s design studio and head office are located Shanghai, China, and in total we are more than 25 people working for the brand around the world: designers, weavers, embroiderers, pattern-makers, mothers, fathers, fashionistas, artists and hobby gardeners. We are built from a foundation of silk artisans through our partnership with Xiu Niang since 1896 and our shared purpose is to inspire a lifestyle that promotes balance and seek our own harmony as an organisation. We know that life is never in a constant state, we experience phases, with new forces and triggers changing our equilibrium. But we work on our mindset; being aware and open to shift and adapt in order to maintain our meaning of balance.
We are continuously working towards what we believe is our equilibrium state:
• balancing innovative silk products using natural, premium Yongtai silk whilst reviving ageless silk techniques;
• balancing beauty and comfort to humankind whilst producing sustainably and ethically from start to finish;
• balancing the art from our ancient heritage whilst designing for modern day life.
