Is satin a natural material?
Satin is a type of fabric, it refers to the finish on the cloth when it is woven. Satin can be constructed of silk, which is a natural fiber (comes from silkworms), or it can be constructed of synthetic material, primarily rayon or polyester. You can also have satin which is constructed with both silk and cotton, or a blend of silk and rayon. These blends are not common in modern fabrics but were extensively used in older clothes. Some satins are heavier than others. Some are shiny on both sides, and some are shiny only on one side. You can expect to pay anywhere from $1 yard to $50 a yard for satin, depending on its composition and quality (silk satins and heavy satins are more expensive).
