This gold cord soutashe has no sense of durability and is not made in the same way as the items of that name. I have some years old gold left over, it's more durable and even a bit wider. Its center groove isn't as pronounced/consistent as the old product which is why it feels so good to sew for the creative project I used it on. Now I have found that the same quality of soutache cord is no longer available as I started searching and ordered several by that name. Pretty disappointed with what I received and was able to see firsthand. (The pitfall of online shopping I don't like - I'm "old school" to see and feel most things I buy) Local sewing stores don't seem to like packaging and color options like them anymore do sell. was earlier. The older version was more woven or woven, giving it a more robust look. I'm not completely satisfied with this current version, but I'll leave it. There are also other colors available from another source that I found on the internet and bought recently. They're not the same in the way they're made, but they're a little more durable than that gold. It seems that soutache/corduroy as I have known it in the past is no longer available. I don't use it for jewelry making but wanted to use it for hand sewing etc. The bit of black I had in my sewing pieces from years past was the perfect element to outline a specific image to make it stand out in a little quilt project I did for Christmas gifts last year, so I caught on to look for more of this type of product for future use. I'm not very happy to learn that the exact same guy doesn't exist anymore.
