*see lots 44, 52-57 for all lots of silk, textiles and Saris brought back from India in early 70s as described here*. A beautiful group of raw silks (glossy pieces) and other textiles that a Peace Corps Volunteer brought back in around 1970. It was made in a small town outside of Bangalore called Ramanagram. There, they grew Mulberry bushes. They put the caterpillars there to feed until they were ready to be spun into cocoons. Then they wove the cocoons into raw silk. It is beautiful and very different than regular silk. See rough measurements in photos. SK Pickup category timeslot {A}
