Yet, today, only one family remains crafting Tan Chau Silk the traditional way. We searched for over a year to find the 92-year-old artisan committed to sustaining the silk. Now, we are partnering with his family to share this historic craft and rehire a new generation of artisans to continue the art of Tan Chau Silk.
