Au Ver à Soie Soie Gobelins – Pack of 6 Spools – 50 m each – “Classique” Palette – 100% Silk – by Au Ver à Soie
Au Ver à Soie Soie Gobelins is a premium pure silk thread made in France, composed of 2 tightly twisted strands with a high and intense natural sheen. Its smooth and flexible structure makes it easy to work with in a single strand, ensuring clean stitching and excellent control without excessive twisting or tangling.
Soie Gobelins is widely used in traditional embroidery, counted-thread techniques, cross-stitch on linen and silk, Hardanger, and fine decorative needlework. Its softness and stability make it a preferred choice for professional embroiderers, designers, restorers, knitters, and textile artists.
The thread is dyed in flottes (skeins) to guarantee perfect color consistency, then presented in spools of 50 meters. The “Classique” pack includes 6 spools in coordinated classic shades, designed for balanced tonal harmony and versatile use across traditional embroidery work.
