About Us
Centuries ago merchants from Europe came to Asia in search of silk and spices. The route these merchants took became known as the silk route. This route stretches over 6,000km and it took merchants months to cross. The world is now shrinking and we can travel the same route in a matter of hours, the result is we no longer restricted to buying goods in our home towns.
Established in 1998, Silk Walk actively sources products from all over the world for the very best silk fashion, furniture and decoration. We pride ourselves on finding new and unique home furnishings and our range is always changing. We travel the world in search of the finest in home furnishing so you don't have to.
Our exquisite pieces are meticulously hand-picked and sourced from France, Morocco, USA, Belgium, Turkey, Nepal, Sri Lanka and South East Asian countries such as Thailand, Vietnam, Indonesia, India and Myanmar.
Chainstitch
This intricate ART known as chain stitch originated centuries ago in KASHMIR. Chainstitch is done by Hook rather than by needle. The hook is referred to as "ART". This art covers a much larger area than needle work in the same amount of time. All the embroidery is executed in a white cotton fabric that is pre-shrunk. Tiny stitches are used to cover the entire area - figures on motifs are worked in striking colors. Stitches ought to be small even-sized and neat. Our chain stitch is handmade and made with natural fibers and dyes.
