Limited edition due to the vintage and/or exotic sourcing of the materials
This Ilk carefully crafts wearable art in limited quantities in her Montreal studio. Sourcing rare fabrics, designing, hand dyeing, meticulously treating against fraying, stiffening, hand sewing, and assembling are all part of the process. The sheen and softness of the lace is preserved wherever possible. Due to the nature of our production method, each item may vary slightly. Most of the pieces are limited editions as they are created from vintage lace as well as other vintage or exotically sourced materials. There may be slight discolouration or scuffs due to this vintage nature. This is part of the jewelry’s uniqueness and story.
