Rough Purl is the dullest of the bullion types, with a more matte finish to standard bullion. The shine of this material works beautifully when contrasted with Smooth Purl. It is a tiny coil which is created by wrapping a very thin piece of metal around a very small rod. You can then add different effects to the rod to get different effects with the final Bullion.
Rough Purl Bullion can be used for lots of different embroidery techniques. It is most commonly used over a technique called soft string padding. The metal is applied with a technique called cutwork.
This high quality bullion is used by our Hand & Lock embroiderers in our hand embroidery studio and our professional tutors in their goldwork classes.
Sold in multiples of 5 grams.
