Fil au Chinois Metallic Threads No. 15 bring shimmer and ornamentation to hand stitching and decorative craft work. These are fine metallic threads designed for embroidery, tambour beading and surface decoration, where a subtle shine or bold gleam enhances the visual impact of the design.
This size, No. 15, sits in a range of Fil au Chinois threads that vary in thickness and handle. Metallic threads are prized when you want to make motifs stand out — whether that is outlining embroidered letters, adding sparkle to textile art, or using them in tambour work for couture style bead and sequin applications.
These threads combine strength with flexibility, making them easier to stitch with than many other rigid metallic threads. They are ideal for use on woven and linen grounds, silk, organza, velvet and fine woollens, and work beautifully alongside traditional silk or cotton embroidery threads to bring texture and contrast to your stitching.
Fil au Chinois metallic threads are also used in costume work, historical embroidery projects, theatrical textiles and decorative crafts. Their reflective surface catches the light in a way that gives depth and interest to motifs without overwhelming the base design.
Materials Details: Premium metallic thread blend specially designed for hand embroidery and decorative stitch work. Available in multiple shining shades.
Available Colours:
Classic silver (n°5), Gold (n°4), Old gold (n°15), Copper (n°130), Bronze (n°145)
