Thailand: Thai silk is one of the country's finest products. Here a model wears a stylish pink silk jacket and grey silk skirt, Chiang Mai

Thai silk is produced from the cocoons of Thai silkworms. Thailand's silkworm farmers cultivate both types of the domesticated silkworms that produce commercial silk: <i>Samia ricini</i>, commonly known as the eri silkworm, which produces matte Eri silk, and the <i>Bombyx mori</i>, producer of the better known, glossy mulberry silk.
