This spring and summer, Chalk and Thread is proud to introduce a collection inspired by one of China’s most treasured fabrics: gambiered silk. Steeped in over 500 years of heritage, gambiered silk is known for its soft sheen, earthy tones, and entirely natural dyeing process — an art form that combines silk with the juice of the Dioscorea plant, then left to develop its signature colour under the sun. Each piece reflects a delicate harmony of nature, time, and handcraft.
Gambiered silk has long been cherished for its breathable comfort, its subtle elegance, and its deep cultural roots. We were drawn not only to its beauty but to its quiet strength — a perfect match for our design philosophy.
This is a special moment for us — Chalk and Thread is, for the first time, speaking directly to you, our wonderful community. Your support has made our products loved and sought-after, and now we want to give back with open communication, attentive service, and a deeper look into the inspiration behind our collections.
We warmly welcome your orders, questions, or simply your curiosity. Whether you're new to our pieces or a returning friend, don’t hesitate to reach out — we’re here, and we’re listening.
With care,
The Chalk and Thread Team
