Royal Thai Silk Cocoons
The uniqueness of the Royal Thai silk cocoons is recognizable from their shape and color. The indigenous cocoons have been in existence in Thailand for over one thousand years and the tradition silk reeling by hand to obtain unique silk yarns has prevailed hitherto.
 
Thailand's Agriculture Ministry uses a peacock emblem to authenticate Thai silk and protect it from imitations. The peacock emblem serves as a guarantee of quality and it comes in four different colors based on specific silk types and production process. These are the following:

Gold peacock: Indicates the premium Royal Thai Silk, a product of native Thai silkworm breeds and traditional hand-made production.

Silver peacock: Indicates Classic Thai Silk, developed from specific silkworm breeds and hand-made production.

Blue peacock: Indicates Thai Silk, a product of pure silk threads and with no specific production method (allows chemical dyes).

Green peacock: Indicates Thai Silk Blend, a product of silk blended with other fabrics and with no specific production method.
