The Toho and Miyuki rice beads you choose are all top-quality beaded materials from Japan. Alina has selected nearly a hundred different colors and materials of beads, which ensures smooth threading during the shuttle weaving process, allowing it to easily blend into your delicate lace structure without getting stuck or disrupting the flatness of the pattern. Ultimately, it enhances the overall refinement and durability of the work.

We have prepared two styles of pearls for you to choose from. Swarovski simulated pearls have an extremely uniform size and a brilliant luster that does not fade easily, while natural freshwater pearls have a naturally warm luster and unique texture, which can endow the work with a natural and dynamic high-end texture (like the eye-catching stamens in a flower petal).

We have carefully selected a variety of colorful natural stone beads, such as garnet, sunstone, multicolored fluorite, pink opal, purple opal, black rutile, etc. From the smooth jadeite to the lively moonstone, these beads undergo full-handcrafted chamfering of the holes, with smooth edges that do not damage the lace thread. They are particularly suitable as the finishing touch in areas such as the overlapping petals, the turning points of the leaf veins, or the gaps between the lace.

Our natural mother-of-pearl buttons each bear the unique iridescence and flowing halo bestowed by the ocean, adding an elegant finishing touch to the ends of the weft-braided pieces. The hand-polished smooth curved surface fits the skin perfectly, with double holes/cuff designs on the back, engraved with the word "tatting", which can seamlessly connect with lace finishing threads (such as hidden knots or braided rings), providing both stable and invisible support while remaining natural and load-bearing, elevating the buttoning function to the level of an art-grade detail poem.

From the agile shuttle guiding the threads to dance gracefully, to the meticulous scissors cutting off the thread ends like the wind, to the piano-polished wire box collecting the colorful threads into an artistic canvas, and to the melting pen instantly sealing the thread ends without leaving any trace and making them invisible - these tools are not only the extended hands of the shuttle weaving, but also turn the creation into a ballet performed by fingertips.
