So, why silk? What is so important about silk that it is recommended as the most ideal fabric for containing your tarot bags?

Physically, silk is durable as fabric's go and resists fabric rot. It is more flexible and keeps its shape better. It has symbolized wealth and achievement as it is a difficult fabric to obtain and make. It keeps a controlled temperature (cool in warm weather and warm in cooler weather) and helps keep moisture at bay. items wrapped in silk are better preserved than those wrapped in other fabric. It was once advised to us that antique books ought to be wrapped in silk to protect them and help them last longer, preserved from natural deterioration.

Magically, silk thus symbolized protection and success.

What better fabric then to contain your precious tarot cards!
