Silks: Matthews offers three types of silk in both white and black: Artificial Silk, China Silk and 1/4 Stop Silk. While the properties of each vary, they essentially all have the same purpose, which is to be used for medium diffusion at varying degrees.

White Artificial Silk offers the most diffusion at a light loss of 1.6 stops with a significant amount of ambient bounce (its counter, Black Silk offers no ambient bounce).

China Silk is 1 stop light loss and 1/4 Stop Silk is about 0.6 stops light loss. The safety characteristics of each of these silks vary
