Note:The biggest difference between the two is that silk is anatural fiber and satin is aweave. Satin can be created by used silk or other materials. Silk comes with more strength and silk will have a more shimmery appearance compared to satins glossy surface with a dull back. Both have their backings from China but silk is harder to produce, as a single thread requires silk from thousands of silk worms. This makes silk much more expensive than satin which comes from synthetic fibers.
