Soutache Cords

Soutache cord is a narrow, decorative braid that brings structure, elegance, and dimension to handcrafted jewellery and bead embroidery projects. Originally used in textile embellishment and uniform detailing, soutache has found a beloved place in the world of beadwork for its versatility and visual appeal.

Measuring approximately 3mm wide, soutache cord is made by wrapping fine thread around a central core to create a smooth, slightly domed braid. The cord has a subtle groove along its centre, making it easy to stitch through and ideal for framing and securing beads. Its flexible structure allows you to curve, coil, and layer it into flowing patterns that add depth and flair to your designs.

Soutache is most commonly used in the technique known as soutache embroidery or soutache jewellery, where cords are sewn around beads, stones, and cabochons to form ornate motifs. Designers use it to outline shapes, link components, and build statement pieces such as earrings, pendants, brooches, and cuffs. Whether you’re working with seed beads, crystals, or flat-back stones, soutache helps create a clean, professional finish with a unique, textile-inspired aesthetic.

Our soutache cord is available in a wide range of colours, from classic neutrals to vibrant jewel tones, so you can mix, match, and layer to suit your creative vision. It pairs beautifully with metallic threads, pearls, and rhinestones for richly detailed results.

Perfect for both beginner and experienced bead artists, soutache cord opens up a world of elegant, sculptural jewellery possibilities. Whether you’re creating timeless art deco designs or bold modern statements, this versatile trim is an essential addition to your beading toolkit.
