Soie d'Alger: assembly of 7 strands of moderate sheen, easily separable, made from schappe silk (worsted silk), available in 606 colors, in 5 and 45 m.

Algiers silk can be used in the same way as a classic milled thread in all your needlework projects, in 1 or more strands depending on the medium used.

Used by leading embroiderers, restorers and carpet manufacturers.

What's more, it's easy to split, making it ideal for a wide range of applications in bobbin lace, embroidery on canvas and silk gauze.

The name "Algiers" refers to a manufacturing process, not to the city.
