Gossamer fabric is a thin, sheer woven fabric. The structure of the fabric is similar to a gauze. It is usually made of silk, cotton, or wool. The fabric may be coated with rubber to make it waterproof. [1] [2] [3]
The name of the fabric is said of something very fine and delicate, [4] and it is associated with a thread-like filmy substance spun by small spiders. [5]
The Gossamer is a very delicate and a see-through fabric. It is used in veils, dresses, long streamers, [6] curtains, and decorations. [7] [1]
