Portia has always been ahead when it comes to modern machinery and equipment but still, a big skill in craftsmanship is needed. No machinery in the world can compensate the human knowledge and the feel for the raw material - textiles, and not at least the silk.
There is no substitute to the colleagues of Portias long experience with cutting, pattern fitting and inspection. The combination of modern machinery and a big craftsmanship is the best guarantee to get first class products.
