Madagascar's orb web spider's golden web silk has been used to create an astounding piece of golden cloth. This has been displayed in New York and is now in London.  The whole thing is astonishing and very beautiful but most amazing is that we live in a world where spiders produce golden silk and where such stunning things can happen.

[To see some pictures (6) of this + some information (copy & paste) go to:-

But I should warn you -  if you don't like spiders 2 out of the 4 pictures do show the spiders]
