Contemporary Russian Blackwork


The Russian Blackwork company produces and sells embroidery kits based on the CS BlackPearlDesigns' patterns, it is an official distributor of "BlackPearlDesigns" in Europe and the USA.
Creative Studio "BlackPearlDesigns" is a team of talented Russian designers who produce elaborated patterns in Blackwork embroidery technique. In our designs we combine centuries-old traditions of Blackwork with modern embroidery tendencies and Russian spirit.

Our mission is to supply the lovers of Blackwork embroidery with premium quality embroidery kits featuring different themes and subjects starting from samplers and up to human portraits.

While working out our designs we follow several principals:
1. We develop not just a singular design, but the whole collection that as a rule consists of 3 or 5 designs of the same theme. This ensures that our adherents will for sure find a design to their taste and likings.
2. We always add a small portion of embellishments to our designs – beads, lurex or metalized floss, satin ribbons, sequins, etc. to give our works a touch of exquisite look. But not too much so that it wouldn't make the stitching process too complicated.
3. We always stitch the models of our designs to put a photo of the finished work on the cover of the kits. While the model is being stitched we correct and improve the pattern for the convenience of the stitcher. Besides having a stitched work on the cover guarantees that the pattern is workable, and the model can also be used as a guidelines for your stitching process.
4. We try to offer you a choice of the fabric color – white or cream, and color solution for some of our designs. For example, you can chose the color solution that matches your tastes or interior best for The Dragons collection.

Our kits is packed with quality Aida fabric, threads (cottons, metalized, lurex), beads and a tapestry needle. The embroidery fabric is precut with 5 cm allowance to each side to the pattern size to guarantee that the finished work can be easily mounted to the frame or arranged as a panno. Cottons are tucked in the cardboard organizers and metalized and lurex threads are reeled to the floss bobbins to ease the stitching process. Beads are packed into the small plastic bags with a zip lock.
The charts are A3 sheets in colors and go with legend and instructions for stitching, that makes  them comprehensive and easy to follow.
Each kit is packed in an individual plastic bag with a colorful cover.
