Silkwork, Passementerie & Costume Accessories

		Tassels and knops Tassels - the finishing touch and the main item associated with passementerie. From tiny purse and bag tassels and decorative knops, tassels for clothing embellishment and interior decoration, to the repair and reconstruction of antique tassels, Gina has studied many of the techniques used in the past. Modern tassels using tradional techniques can also be worked, to add a unique finish to couture and interior design schemes.
