Silk is a protein fiber produced from the slime of an insect, the Bombyx Mori, and fine tissues are obtained from it.

It was in the 18th century that the production of silk in Como became industrial, in 1840 the mulberry trees, plants on which the silkworms feed, covered 93% of the cultivated surface of the region of Como. In the past, it was the peasant families who took care of the breeding of silkworms and spinning and weaving mills flourished everywhere.
