Vintage Silk Embroidery Thread Collection – Alpine Air Set – Mountain Landscape Shades – 20 Spools – 100% Silk – 10 m Each – Original Card Spools – Made in Italy by Cucirini Bozzolo Reale Tre Stelle
This vintage Alpine Air Set includes 20 silk embroidery spools in a sophisticated palette inspired by the colours and contrasts of alpine landscapes. The shades blend a range of mountain greys with fresh greens, reflecting the interplay between rocky peaks, weathered stone, evergreen forests, alpine meadows, and distant mountain ridges softened by atmospheric haze. The palette captures the essence of summer in the Alps, where pine-covered slopes meet rugged grey rock formations under clear mountain skies. Each colour is represented by 2 matching spools, creating a balanced and versatile collection ideal for landscape embroidery, botanical motifs, decorative needlework, and nature-inspired textile projects.
All spools are preserved on their original cardboard reels with original labels and remain in good vintage, unused condition. The silk thread retains its natural sheen, smooth texture, and refined appearance, making it particularly suitable for fine embroidery and decorative sewing.
The set contains 2 spools of each colour, offering a carefully coordinated palette of 10 alpine-inspired shades that work beautifully for shading, highlights, gradients, and detailed embroidery designs. The exact shades included in the lot are visible in the photographs.
Each spool contains approximately 10 meters of silk embroidery thread wound on the original cardboard reels typical of vintage Italian haberdashery supplies.
Some spools may belong to earlier production batches bearing the “Bozzolo Reale” label only, prior to the later “Cucirini Tre Stelle – Bozzolo Reale” branding. These examples add further interest for collectors of vintage Italian sewing materials.
The natural properties of silk provide exceptional stitch definition, a soft lustre, and a smooth finish highly appreciated in both decorative and fine embroidery work.
These spools come from vintage haberdashery stock and remain unused. Due to their age, some original cardboard labels or reels may show minor wear, small cracks, or breaks, which are typical characteristics of vintage thread spools. Labels may vary slightly from those shown in the photographs due to different vintage production batches. The silk thread itself remains in good and usable condition.
