Designer: Kreinik
Collection: Kreinik Japan Threads
Item: B002J
Type: Thread and Floss
Kreinik Japan Threads are synthetic, non-tarnishing gimps (wrapped threads) that give the appearance of stitching with real metals. Since real metal threads are rare and expensive, Japan Threads are an ideal substitute. They offer a smooth, high sheen. Japan #1 is the thinnest, and is most commonly used to couch thicker Japan #5 and Japan #7. Kreinik also makes Japan Gold and Japan Silver in Braid and Ribbon sizes, which can be couched with Japan #1. Approximate length: 40 meters (~44 yards) Comes on spools or cards.
