Although most constructional stitching was carried out with linen thread in the 16th and 17th centuries, coloured silk thread was sometimes used for finishing. This thread has been specially selected for hand-sewing and is suitable for hemming and applying guards and trims.
The photographs of the embroidered smock and stomacher details are examples of embroidery carried out with our black silk thread. No actual garment is included in this listing.
This listing is for Black thread. We also offer other colours of silk thread, plus linen thread - to see all our thread options, please visit our Other Haberdashery section here: https://www.etsy.com/shop/TheTudorTailor?section_id=13061658&ref=shopsection_leftnav_10
