ak47

An AK47 rifle is embroidered over the shoulder in black, on black. The details - screws, ribs, metal transitions - are retained in the pattern of thread.

More than just a technically challenging piece of embroidery, the piece speaks of the layer of civilisation that we wear over an intrinsically troubled soul and of the shadow of darkness within.

Fabric: Superfine 120s (18.2_); 100% wool; ~155g/m.
