Details
What is Pearl Fiber?
Pearl fiber is a shimmering eucalyptus-sourced cellulose top made using a lyocell-process closed-loop manufacturing system. During production, nano-grade pearl powder is blended directly into the spinning dope before the fiber is formed. As the fiber coagulates, the pearl particles bind throughout and onto the fiber surface, producing a bright, opalescent luster unlike any other plant-based fiber. Because the pearl is incorporated during fiber formation rather than applied as a surface coating, it is permanently fused and will not wash out with repeated laundering.
Properties and Benefits
Pearl fiber has a naturally cool, smooth hand with excellent breathability and moisture absorption, making it especially well suited for warm-weather garments and next-to-skin wear. The pearl powder contributes genuine functional benefits including natural antibacterial properties and UV protection. The fiber is fully biodegradable and produced without harmful chemical additives, with the manufacturing solvent recovered and recycled within the closed-loop system.
Please note: although pearl fiber is plant-based cellulose, it is not vegan, as pearl powder is derived from oysters.
Spinning, Blending, and Dyeing
Pearl fiber spins into a lustrous, plump, and drapey yarn on its own. It also blends beautifully with wool, silk, cotton, or linen to add sheen, softness, and drape to any blend. It takes fiber reactive cellulose dyes easily and brilliantly, with the pearlescent luster enhancing dyed colors with a distinctive glow. For felters, it adds shine and a silky quality when combined with wool for both wet and needle felting. It can also be used for doll hair and papermaking.
