About Eri Silk
Eri silk, one of the world's most sustainable and ethical natural fibres, is produced without harming the silkworm. Unlike conventional silk, where the cocoon is harvested before the moth emerges, eri silk is made from open-ended cocoons that allow the moth to complete its natural life cycle.
Native to the North-East of India, the eri silkworm feeds on drought-resistant castor plants that require very little water, making the fibre sustainable. Renowned for its unique versatility, eri silk combines the softness and breathability of cotton, the warmth of wool, and the elegant drape of silk. Naturally hypoallergenic, highly breathable, and comfortable across seasons, it keeps the wearer cool in summer and warm in winter.
At Ereena, we celebrate eri silk not only for its remarkable performance and beauty, but also for the positive impact it creates for thousands of rural artisan families who bring this extraordinary fibre to life.
