Au Ver A Soie Goes Metallic

I had no idea that Au Ver A Soie has metallic braids, but Mary Corbet talks about them here.

There's not much available to us but Needle in a Haystack has a few colors.

The shop plans a club with more colors than what are on their website in 2018 once Au Ver a Soie has plenty of colors ready to ship to them.

Threadnuts appears to have the overdyed metallics in size 8 braid. I am not clear if these are straight from Au Ver A Soie or their overdyed versions.

Inspirations magazine is selling sets of the metallic.  It's called Metallise Tresse'.

Time for a trip to Paris! The Au Ver a Soie showroom is open to the public one day a month. Wish I had known about the metallics when I was there last winter.
