In the 18th century, this Silk Taffeta Ribbon was sometimes listed as “taffety” ribbon. Made from the delicate, but strong product of the silk worm, Silk Taffeta Ribbon was known for its color retention, rich hues and shimmering beauty. Ribbons survive on a variety of objects from the past, including women’s, children’s, and men’s clothing, Millinery, Native American garments, pocketbooks, bags, needlework, and home furnishings.
