Rough Purls are made up of a very fine wire thread that is wound into a soft flexible hollow tube with a dull (matte) surface.
The tube is cut up into chips (beads) and couched down onto the fabric – passing the needle and thread through the middle of the chip so the thread is hidden and can be sewn over felt or crochet cotton padding to give the area dimension,
I recommend ordering enough for your project as each manufacturing batch can differ slightly in colour.

The 100% beeswax small rose is used to coat sewing thread when working metal thread/goldwork embroidery and is a perfect size to work two or three of my goldwork designs.
It is especially good for sewing down abrasive metal threads such as bullions, jaceron, lizerine, pearl purl, purl threads and twists as the thread is less likely to snag on the thread and shred or break.
Beeswax is also useful to coat crochet cotton when used for padding metal thread designs. The beeswax stiffens the crochet cotton so that when you sew down the crochet cotton padding you do not get uneven thickness to the padding caused by the tension of the stitches on unwaxed crochet cotton.
