Why 75 cm?
Because that's the maximum length you'll need to trim the cuffs of a jacket.
A cap circumference will be 65 cm at most, including the seam.
You'll only lose a few cm by buying 75 cm in lengths; buying per meter would be much more troublesome for this rare metal braid, produced by David around 1900.
Width 64 mm. This braid is particularly heavy; note the direction of the striations: vertical for gold, horizontal for silver.
It's about a hundred years old, so it's not without its small stains, which will make it even more consistent on old outfits or hairstyles.
Very limited stock.
