Passementerie Collier de Chien

Elegant Passementerie braid-work was often seen at the royal court of Habsburg Vienna, adorning both ladies’ high-fashion and the dress uniforms of the imperial military.

Austrian-born designer Sophie Aschauer channels this tradition with inspired and original accessories created from repurposed ship's ropes. Her intricate patterns are created using the centuries-old sailors' knots she learned as she gained experience sailing off Nantucket.

This elegant, handwoven accessory creates a link between old-world decorative arts and the seafaring heritage of New England.
