In this embroidery thread, DMC blend all the traditional and most appreciated features of two of their "feathers in the cap": the Pearl Cotton (Coton Perlé) and the Retors D'Alsace, giving birth to a universal floss, shiny and refined, with two twisted plies and extremely strong. The top-quality Egyptian, long-staple cotton used to produce it and the double mercerization guarantee its exceptional quality and unmatched gleam. This thread doesn't kink or make knots while embroidering and it glides easily through the fabric. This Pearl Cotton /Retors D'Alsace is perfect for traditional embroidery - from the timeless "punto antico" and openwork, to the contemporary Hardanger - as well as for quick and easy needlework, cross stitch and any needlework project that we would like to give a particular depth to. 25-gram skein, equal to 110 meters ca.
PLEASE NOTE: on this page, you can find both the brand new Coton Perlé (Pearl Cotton) - Retors d'Alsace described here above, and the skeins of the former Retors d'Alsace of 20 grams and at a strongly rebated price, valid exclusively while stocks last and still carrying the old label. Following the relaunch of their Pearl Cotton (Coton Perlé) and Retors D'Alsace fibers, in fact, DMC has also restyled the labels of these threads, now reading "100% Cotone Perlé - Retors D'Alsace". On this page, they are listed with the new price.
