What’s a “silk” poster?

Question

I recently placed a bid on a poster on eBay, but the listing describes it as a "Prints Poster (Material: Silk Fabric Cloth)." Is this type of poster different from a regular poster, or are they essentially the same? I'm a bit confused. Thank you!

I recently saw a silk picture at a show I attended for homewares. If it really is true silk then it’s handmade on a loom. They can look amazing. They have a really nice shine to them.

I hope it’s a real one because if it’s just a poster then that just won’t cut it. The pictures that I saw were worth hundreds of dollars and the big ones were over $1000.

I would love to have one but can’t afford it.

What was the item description on ebay? I can check it out for you and let you know what I think.

Which ebay, USA, Canada, UK?

Here is a link where you can buy real hand woven silk art: http://www.kingsilkart.com/

They use a silk cloth instead of paper. Here are a bunch of silk posters on Amazon:

Surprisingly, they’re not that much more expensive than regular posters.
