  1. www.yakcarpet.in A TEST TO IDENTIFY REAL VS. ARTIFICIAL SILK CARPETS YAK CARPET

  2. Introduction KASHMIR PURE SILK CARPETS Kashmir Pure Silk Carpets are carefully made by hand with 100% silk yarn on top of a silk base in the Kashmir Valley. Their characteristic bright hues, elaborate designs and shining surface reveal the long heritage of their making. It takes months to create each piece which features floral motifs, paisleys and Mughal designs. At Yak Carpet we always offer the finest quality Kashmir silk carpets which blend elegance and their cultural background. www.yakcarpet.in

  3. REAL SILK VS. FAKE SILK When investing in a luxurious silk carpet, it's crucial to ensure authenticity, as many sellers misrepresent artificial silk rugs (often made of viscose, rayon, or polyester) as real silk. Investing in a real silk carpet is not just about beauty, but long-term value. Always buy from trusted sources like Yak Carpet, where quality meets heritage At Yak Carpet, we value transparency and craftsmanship. Planning to buy handmade authentic silk carpets, please visit us at our Delhi Store. Testing Process Burn Check: Take a small amount of fibers from one of the edges for testing (expert only). Burning real silk smells like hair being burned and turns to ash, but burnt artificial silk smells like plastic and solidifies into a hard point. Lustre Check: Real silk reflects light differently from every angle, showing a dual-tone shine. Artificial silk appears smooth and glossy with a similar surface everywhere. Touch & Texture: Real silk feels warm and soft, while artificial silk may feel cold and slippery. Price Point: Genuine silk rugs are more expensive due to the intricate weaving and natural silk material. Artificial rugs are less expensive. Label & Origin: At Yak Carpet, all handknotted silk rugs come with a certificate of authenticity and are crafted by the weavers from Kashmir or Persia, known for genuine silk weaving. www.yakcarpet.in
