Au Ver a Soie Complexion Assortment

Collections of silk thread organized by complexion type were designed provide the embroiderer with a realistic palette of flesh tone shades.

These silks vary in weight, type, texture and shade enabling you to create a range of effects---down to the finest features such as eyelids or fingertips.
