Add brilliant metallic highlights to your stitching without the frustration often associated with metallic threads. Au Ver a Soie's Metallic Braid #8 is renowned among embroiderers for its smooth, supple feel and exceptional stitchability, making it a favourite for everything from surface embroidery and cross stitch to needlepoint and decorative embellishment.
Unlike many metallic threads that twist, fray, or snag during use, this finely braided thread is designed to glide through fabric with ease. Its round construction helps the thread lie beautifully on the surface, creating clean, even coverage and a luxurious metallic finish.
Size #8 offers a versatile medium weight that is ideal for outlines, decorative details, borders, lettering, highlights, and adding elegant sparkle to embroidery projects. Whether you're creating heirloom needlework, festive designs, couture embellishments, or contemporary embroidery, this premium metallic braid delivers professional-looking results with less effort.
