Description
Fil A Gant is a very strong pre-treated thread. It is also referred to as Fil au Chinois thread and Gloven Thread. Fil A Gant is one of the strongest varieties of sewing thread, making it perfect for techniques like Tambour Beading and Goldwork.
This 100% cotton thread is strong and waxed to help embroider beads and sequins without any difficulty or snagging. The coating also makes it perfect for applying Goldwork embroidery materials without wax.
Can be washed at 40°C or dry cleaned. We recommend avoiding the use of bleaching or tumble drying. It can be ironed but at a low temperature.
Metres on a spool: 150
Diameter of this thread: 0.22mm
Made in France
Materials & Care
Our materials are sourced to the same standard used in the Hand & Lock atelier. Store threads and wires away from direct sunlight and damp. Metallic threads such as bullion and purl should be handled with clean, dry hands. A light coat of beeswax helps prevent fraying when stitching. Keep kits in their packaging until you begin your project.
