Every possible technique--ranging from the 16th-century Arabesque style to French Knots--appears with easy-to-follow diagrams and close-up pictures. Take an inspiring look at items old and new that feature metal thread embroidery, and use the gazetteer as a guide to places around the globe that showcase fine examples.
