Most people who shop for a silk bonnet or robe assume every "silk" is roughly the same. It isn't. Mulberry silk, spun by silkworms that feed only on mulberry leaves, is the most common grade of silk, and it has long-strand fibers that are smoother and more even than the fibers in cheaper alternatives. Crowning Legacy by Ms. Carla builds its collection entirely around 100% mulberry silk, and its Royal Wrap is a good place to see why understanding the difference matters before you buy.
Polyester satin is the usual culprit behind the "silk" label. It feels slippery at the store, but it is a synthetic plastic fiber with none of silk's natural protein. Silk's natural protein structure is what makes it handle your hair and skin differently than a satin imitation.
We recommend checking the fiber content on any label before you buy. "Silk-like" or "satin" usually means a synthetic blend. Look for "100% mulberry silk" written plainly, along with a momme weight, which tells you how dense the fabric is.
Mulberry Silk Grades: Why Grade 6A Matters
Not all mulberry silk is graded the same way. Grade 6A is the grade used for the Royal Wrap, which is made from 100% Grade 6A mulberry silk.
Every Royal Wrap is made from 100% Grade 6A mulberry silk, so the fabric you feel against your skin in a mulberry silk royal wrap is the top tier of the category. When you compare products, ask the seller directly what grade the silk is. A reputable brand will tell you without hesitation.
Understanding Momme Silk Meaning and Why Weight Matters
Momme (pronounced "mom-may") is the unit silk makers use to measure fabric weight and density. A higher momme number means a denser, heavier fabric with more silk in it. Higher momme numbers indicate denser fabric with more silk in it.
The Royal Wrap is made from 22 momme silk. That weight balances a luxurious, fluid drape with enough structure to last.
Mulberry Silk Benefits for Skin, Hair and Temperature Comfort
Mulberry silk is a natural protein fiber, which is why a genuine mulberry silk wrap is made differently from polyester satin.

Hair-type suitability.
Skin and moisture.

Durability, Cost-Per-Wear and Long-Term Value

How to Care for Your Silk Royal Wrap
Silk is durable but needs gentle treatment. Mulberry silk requires more careful maintenance than polyester satin, such as hand washing or a gentle machine cycle (Crowning Legacy by Ms. Carla, 2026). Use a pH-neutral detergent, avoid wringing, and dry flat away from direct sun. Our full guide on how to wash silk robes without damage walks through each step.
Watch out: never machine dry silk or leave it in a hot car. Heat weakens the protein fibers and can permanently dull the sheen.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is so special about mulberry silk?
Mulberry silk is produced by silkworms fed exclusively on mulberry leaves, which yields long, smooth, uniform filaments. Those long strands create a surface that reduces friction against skin and hair. The result is a fabric that feels soft against the body and is gentler on hair overnight.
What grade of mulberry silk is best?
The Royal Wrap is made from 100% Grade 6A mulberry silk, so buyers get the top grade rather than a lower-grade blend. Grade is worth checking on any silk piece you consider.
