A Creative Interlude

Embroidery is about taking a moment to slow down and focus on a simple action.
Stitch by stitch, embroidery invites you to enter a calmer, almost meditative rhythm, where you gradually see the pattern appear under your fingers.

Learn a skill

The kits allow you to discover goldwork embroidery and thread techniques through a guided project.
Thanks to the detailed booklet and video tutorials, you learn each step gradually and progress at your own pace.

Create a unique piece

As the hours pass, the metallic threads reveal their gleam and texture.

The embroidery then becomes a unique textile piece that can be framed, given as a gift, or kept as a precious object.

Have a question?
What is goldwork embroidery?

Goldwork embroidery is a traditional goldwork technique that involves embroidering with metallic threads (often gold, silver, or copper) to create luminous, raised designs.

Unlike classic embroidery where the thread passes through the fabric, many threads used in goldwork are laid on the surface of the fabric and then secured with small stitches, a technique called couching. This method preserves the brilliance and structure of the metallic threads.

Goldwork also uses various characteristic materials such as:

• jaseron (pearl purl)
• smooth or coiled purl
• metallic plates
• decorative metallic threads

These elements allow for the creation of unique texture, light, and relief effects.

Historically, goldwork embroidery was used for royal, military, and religious garments, but it is now practiced as a craft and artistic discipline in contemporary embroidery.

Goldwork embroidery kits offer an accessible way to discover this technique, by learning step-by-step the gestures and methods used in art embroidery.
What does a goldwork embroidery kit contain?

The kits are designed to guide you step by step throughout the project.

Each kit includes a detailed and illustrated booklet, which explains each embroidery step as well as the different techniques used.

To complement these explanations, you also have access to video tutorials of the embroidery stitches, so you can see the movements and techniques in detail.

Finally, a dedicated WhatsApp group allows you to interact with other people who are making the kit. You can ask your questions, share your progress, and find help if you encounter any difficulties.

You are therefore never alone with your embroidery: everything is designed to support you until the final result.
Are goldwork embroidery kits suitable for beginners?

The kits are designed to be accessible to motivated beginners, even if you've never done goldwork embroidery before.

Each technique is explained in the detailed booklet, with clear illustrations to guide you in creating the design.

In addition, explanatory videos of the embroidery stitches are included to show you the movements and techniques used in art embroidery.

With a little patience and a desire to learn, goldwork embroidery quickly becomes an accessible and very satisfying practice.
Do I need a hoop or an embroidery frame?

To ensure the best conditions for your embroidery, it is advisable to use an embroidery hoop or frame, which keeps the fabric taut while you work.

This equipment is not included in the kits, as many embroiderers already own their own.

If you are new to goldwork embroidery, a classic embroidery hoop is sufficient for completing the kit's designs.
Are the patterns already traced on the fabric?

The pattern is directly printed onto the canvas, allowing you to start embroidering immediately, without any transfer steps.
Can this kit be given as a gift?

Yes, goldwork embroidery kits are often chosen as gifts for creative people or those curious to discover a new craft.

Each kit is carefully prepared and contains everything needed to complete the embroidery. It makes an original and creative gift, offering both an experience and a DIY project.
What should I do if I get stuck on a step?

The kits are designed to be accessible to motivated beginners, even if you have never practiced goldwork embroidery before.

Each technique is explained in the detailed booklet, with clear illustrations to guide you in creating the design.

In addition, explanatory videos of the embroidery stitches are included to show you the movements and techniques used in art embroidery.
