July, 2004
The Stevenson Vestal 2004 Price List brings new clarity to the world of trims for fine custom window and bed coverings. You will always know how we will handle a particular trim for a particular product.
Embellishment Charges for Draperies
We have clarified the circumstances in which we will either sew trim in a seam or sew trim to the face of a product. At the same time, we also tell you exactly when we will hand sew a product.
Trims with a plain lip.
Trims with decorative lip....or no lip.
Sewn in seam.
Sewn to face by hand.
“Trims with a plain lip”, which we machine-sew into the seam to hide the plain lip. This includes:
1) Various rope shaped decorative trims with lips: “rope trim”, “decorative cord”, “decorative braid”.
2) Brush fringe.
3) Bullion fringe (Note: some bullion fringes have a decorative lip—see “4)” below).
“Trims with a decorative lip or no lip”, which we either hand-sew or machine-sew onto the face to allow the whole trim to show. We hand-sew these trims to the face of Draperies, Valance tails, Cascades and pelmets, and Quilted Bedding. Elsewhere we machine-sew. These trims include:
1) Various tassel trims: “tassel fringe”, “ball fringe”.
2) Flat trims: “flat braid”, “flat band trim”.
3) “Decorative cord without lip”.
4) Some bullion fringes that do have a decorative lip.
Bead trim falls into a special category of its own. We either hand-sew or machine-sew, depending on the product. But regardless of sewing method or placement, we have established a separate price level due to the special
difficulties we encounter when we work with this unique embellishment.
