100% Perlé silk thread is both strong and glossy. It is traditionally used for buttonholes as well as topstitching on fabric or leather. It can also be used for cross stitch, bobbin lace or braids and trimmings. Historically it was used in tapestries for the finer details of the faces and hands of the figures and the centres of certain flowers or animals eyes were sewn with silk threads to obtain a contrast with the wool.

The diameter of the thread is 0.525 mm

Length on each spool: 20 metres.

The spools are classed as small parcels by Royal Mail due to their size.

Materials: Pure Silk.
