Details make a big difference, especially when it comes to uniforms, ceremonial clothing, or costumes. One such small but important detail is the Silver Russia Braid 3.5mm Rank Russian Lace. This fine silver trim has a rich history and is still widely used today in military dress, uniforms, and custom costume designs.

At Hand Embroidered UK, we provide high-quality silver braid that helps bring tradition, class, and style to your uniform or costume project.

What is Silver Russia Braid?

The Silver Russia Braid is a slim metallic lace, just 3.5mm wide. It’s used mostly in military clothing and uniforms. The braid is shiny, strong, and looks very neat when stitched on fabric. It is made from silver metallic threads that reflect light and add a beautiful detail to any garment.

The braid is called “Russia Braid” because of its origin and design style. Over the years, it has been used across European and British military outfits. Even now, it remains a favorite among tailors and costume makers.

How is it Used?

This braid is used in many ways. Here are some common uses:

• Military Uniforms: Used to show rank or decorate the sleeves, shoulders, collars, or cuffs
  
  

• Parade Clothing: Adds smart and official style to ceremonial uniforms
  
  

• Historical Costumes: Helps recreate the exact look of old-time uniforms or royal dress
  
  

• Fashion Designs: Adds silver edging to jackets, coats, or waistcoats
  
  

• Caps and Epaulettes: Outlines and highlights shoulder or cap designs
  
  

Whether you're making a general’s jacket or a costume for a play, this braid helps add the final polished touch.

Why is 3.5mm Size Important?

The 3.5mm braid is the perfect middle size. It is not too wide or too thin. It looks clean and professional. This size is great for:

• Sewing along edges and seams
  
  

• Making rows of decoration
  
  

• Stitching around buttonholes or lapels
  
  

• Creating small patterns or symbols
  
  

Because it's thin, it doesn't make the clothing bulky, and it’s easy to sew by hand or machine.
