Making foil thread
The shells are thinly shaved to a thickness of about 0.1 mm, cut into patterns, and pasted onto washi paper.
The mother-of-pearl layer of a seashell has certain angles at which light does not reflect, so the shell is cut out with the direction of reflection in mind so that the entire design has a natural shine.
The fixation of the glue used varies depending on humidity and temperature, so the composition is adjusted each time to ensure that the shells and foil do not peel off.
Cutting
The washi paper, which has been completed by applying the nacre layer of the shell and applying gold decorations or other decorations, is evenly cut into a width of about 0.6 to 0.75mm using a large blade called a guillotine.
During cutting, the paper is carefully fixed so that the angle at which the blade is inserted does not shift, and great care is taken to avoid scratches during weaving.
After cutting, each piece is visually inspected to ensure that the shell or foil is not peeling off.
Weaving
The cut foil threads are used as weft threads. Using a small shuttle, they are passed through the opened warp threads.
Since the foil threads have a flat shape, they are woven with great care to prevent them from flipping over.
Each time the foil thread is passed through, the marks and patterns at the ends of the foil thread are visually checked, and adjustments are made to ensure that there is no slightest misalignment. Even a slight deviation can diminish the luster of the nacre on the shell.
