Mawata silk board

Mawata Silk – 100% Natural Silk for Kintsugi

Mawata is a traditional 100% natural silk material used in kintsugi and Japanese lacquerwork.

Its exceptionally fine and soft fibres make it particularly suitable for polishing, cleaning and applying metallic powders such as gold and silver. Compared with ordinary cotton, Mawata offers greater fineness and helps achieve precise, delicate finishes without damaging the surface.

Each sheet is made from silkworm cocoons and can be divided into approximately 6 to 8 small balls, making it convenient for use throughout the different finishing stages of kintsugi.

Features:

  • 100% natural silk
  • Dimensions: 28 × 15 cm
  • Weight: approximately 1.5 g per sheet
  • Available individually or in packs of 5 sheets
  • Suitable for polishing and cleaning delicate surfaces
  • Ideal for applying gold, silver and other metallic powders
  • Can be divided into approximately 6 to 8 small balls
  • Natural variations may occur due to the nature of the material and do not affect its performance

Mawata silk is a valuable material for achieving precise, refined and traditional finishes in kintsugi and Japanese lacquerwork.
