These kind of metallic trims are used on traditional Greek embroideries to finish the ends of runners or sew to the entire perimeter of an embroidery. They have a lovely metallic sheen that pairs well with folk embroideries. The trims pictured here are made in a family factory in Thessaloniki on machinery that dates back to the 1940s.
 
Chevron lace is a light and airy 1-1/4" metallic lace which is excellent for when you want a more delicate finishing.
 
Prices are by the one yard package.
