Please let us know if you have additional items to appraise, and thank you again for using Mearto.
I do apologize - I missed that in the photo and from the weave, it is such a fine wool that it looked like silk to me. I have amended the appraisal to read 'fine wool'.
The tag says wool. You call it silk. How does that work? Thanks for explaining.
