PRODUCT DETAILS :
Goldwork
is the art of embroidery using metal threads.
It is particularly prized for the way light plays on it.
The term "goldwork" is used even when the threads are
imitation gold, silver, or copper.
The metal wires used to make the threads have never been
entirely gold; they have usually been gold-coated silver
(
silver gilt
) or cheaper metals, and even then the "gold"
often contains a very low percent of real gold.
Most metal threads are available in silver and sometimes
copper as well as gold; some are available in colors as well.
Goldwork was originally developed in Asia.
It has been used for at least 2000 years.
