Sažetak
The paper discusses the production of silk in the area of Konavle. Different sources have
been used, as well as a fieldwork research, in order to establish a sort of synthesis of
sericulture in Konavle, comparing the contemporary conditions of this traditional skill
with the past ones. In Konavle, silk was produced in a simple and old fashioned way, in a
family and for a family. Traditional knowledge and skills have been passed from one
generation of women to the next. During the twentieth century, the production of silk has
slowly ceased to exist and finally disappeared in the 1960s. It has been revived at the end
of the century, prompted by the war experience.
