Au Chinois Tonkin Embroidery Thread - Azure - Gold (1013) x 10 m

Make your creations stand out with this azure blue Tonkin yarn, which has a slightly fluffy and lustrous texture.

This azure version of Tonkin features a vivid blue accented with a fine strand of gold Lurex. Made in France from textured polyester, this guipé thread has a slight fullness that makes the stitches stand out on the fabric. Its composition also ensures good durability during use and prevents the fraying that often occurs with certain metallized threads.

What can you do with this Au Chinois Tonkin embroidery thread?
Use the azure shade for patterns inspired by the sea or sky, or to add a splash of color to a more neutral composition. Pair it with sky blue, turquoise, and navy to create different shades of blue. You can also use it to make jewelry, such as these half-moon earrings. Round out your supplies in our beaded embroidery and Lunéville embroidery sections.

This thread can be used for cross-stitch, traditional embroidery, and even for creating small embroidered elements that can later be mounted as a brooch or pendant. A combination of azure, white, and gold will produce a luminous effect, while orange will create a more graphic contrast.
