Gold, or golden, embroidery is usually called embroidery with metallic threads. The history of this type of needlework dates back to ancient times, but gold embroidery is still popular today: famous designers decorate their models with truncal and gimp patterns, and embroidery lovers around the world freeze in admiration at the sight of iridescent threads, from which volumetric embroideries of striking beauty are obtained. Despite the fact that gold embroidery is an ancient art, modern embroidery masters come up with various ways to infuse the spirit of modernity and extravagance into this technique. The author of this amazing book, Japanese-born British embroiderer Amy Nimura, has done just that. The book details the materials and techniques of gold embroidery, and also provides several step-by-step projects of three-dimensional brooches made using these techniques. Finished works will delight you, your family and friends, and your subscribers. The book was published under the auspices of the Royal English School of Embroidery and is a great gift for all needlework lovers.
