Book excerpt: Excerpt from Handbook of the Collection Illustrative of the Wild Silks of India, in the Indian Section of the South Kensington Museum: With a Catalogue of the Collection and Numerous Illustrations The term wild silks of India must be regarded as applying to all Species of Silk other than that produced by the Bombyx mori, the worm which feeds on the mulberry leaf, from which is obtained the silk of commerce by regular organised industries in Bengal, France, China, Japan, Italy, Persia, Siam, and in some other parts of the world. For the most part, if not almost entirely, at present, the worms which produce these wild Silks feed on the leaves of trees and plants which grow wild in the jungles and forests of India, or at any rate are not cultivated for silkworm food. An impetus was given to the utilisation of these silks by the display of some of the most important of them at the Paris Exhibition in 1878, by Her Majesty's Government of India, in a collection which I had the honour of being appointed to arrange. Since that time, as new uses have been found for Tusser silk, one of the chief and most widely spread of Indian wild silks, the question of supply has become a most important one.

Download or read book Silk and empire written by Brenda King and published by Manchester University Press. This book was released on 2017-03-01 with total page 224 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this book, Brenda M. King challenges the notion that Britain always exploited its empire. Creativity, innovation and entrepreneurship were all part of the Anglo-Indian silk trade and were nurtured in the era of empire through mutually beneficial collaboration. The trade operated within and without the empire, according to its own dictates and prospered in the face of increasing competition from China and Japan. King presents a new picture of the trade, where the strong links between Indian designs, the English silk industry and prominent members of the English the arts and crafts movement led to the production of beautiful and luxurious textiles. Lavishly illustrated, this book will be of interest to those interested in the relationship between the British Empire and the Indian subcontinent, as well as by historians of textiles and fashion.
