What do we offer?

Machine embroidery

We work with a ZSK Sprint embroidery machine. This machine has extra additions such as a sequin and a boring device. Ten different colours of threads can be used simultaneously in one design. The use of different stitch types and threads is an extra option, if so required. One of our specialities is gold and ajour machine embroidery.

Combinations

We can translate handmade embroideries into machine embroideries. On the same token we can combine machine embroideries with hand embroideries. This option offers a solution for a small couture embroidery production, for example, which would be too costly to do entirely manually.

Who is enthusiastic about us?
Het Borduurburo, Martine van 't Hul, Dutch National Ballet, borduren, handwerk, kunstenaar

Dutch National Ballet

"For the ballet performance, Raymonda (April 2022), there had to be a medieval costume. The ornaments needed to be embroidered as if they were slightly gone/ faded away. This was quite a challenge; to embroider long patterns on velvet fabric nicely. We were therefore happy with Het Borduurburo, because we dared to have a complicated pattern embroidered there in a very short time in complete confidence," said Oliver Haller, head of the ballet costume department of the Dutch National Ballet.

Viktor & Rolf

The Viktor & Rolf Haute Couture AW19 Spiritual Glamour collection consists of natural ingredients and plant-based fabrics combined with much handcraft. This holistic approach is illustrated through various embroidery techniques that have been implemented as abstract works of art. Viktor & Rolf's feel and vision were brought to life through an intensive and enjoyable collaboration between Het Borduurburo and the studio.

From one design (approximately A3 size) we made various types of embroidery for jewellery artist Truike Verdegaal. For the collection ‘Creating Space’ 2021. We used different kinds of fabrics, from heavy kelim fabric to organza and finally we did lace embroidery as well. It is interesting to see how a single design can be embroidered in multiple ways, each time with a different outcome.

Lilian Driessen, the founder of fashion label Atelier Maria Lux, wanted to have a special historical piece restored. An antique and unique jacket was once completely put together by connecting small satin straps. Due to the wear and the transience of time, this fabric had become so fragile -not wearable anymore- that it was restored in a contemporary way.
