Museum Art History: Watch how over a Million Spiders spun a silk cape!

“In 2009, what is believed to be the world’s largest and rarest piece of cloth made entirely from the silk of the golden silk orb-weaver was exhibited at the American Museum of Natural History in New York. It is said to be the “only large piece of cloth made from natural spider silk existing in the world today.” It is a breathtaking textile and the story of its creation is fascinating.” –Ancient Origins

Watch how 1.2 million Madagascar Golden Orb Spiders spun the silk for a golden cape that took eight years to complete!
