Fine silk is a natural light and uniform fabric. The shine, the shimmering colors and the softness make this silk an unrivaled fabric.

Over the years, Artisans Angkor <\/strong>has become a showcase of Cambodian craftsmanship for its silks worthy of the Silk Road!<\/p>\n

Artisans Angkor has pioneered a new social policy in Cambodia, guaranteeing a fair income as well as social and medical welfare to all its employees. The artisans themselves formed an association that holds a 20-percent share in the company.<\/p>\n
