Gold-thread caravan goes to Novi Sad

Caravan organized to promote the contest of the well-known brand Zlatna C-coffee, has moved from Nis to Novi Sad where the second in a series of promotion was held at the famous restaurant \\\'Sokace\\\'. The contest runs until the end of the year and the aim is to acknowledge the creativity and effort of all women throughout Serbia, which made handicrafts. Special guest of the promotion was famous actress Vesna Cipcic, who will be a member of the jury in the first stage of the competition. Members of Ethno Network participated to demonstrate the traditional technique of gold-thread embroidery.

- Gold-thread embroidery has always been the privilege of the rich because the embroidery was done with gold, semi-gold and silver wires - said Rajka Jovanovic, a licensed educator of Ethno Network - There are \\\'terzijski\\\', \\\'church\\\' and \\\'court\\\' gold-thread embroidery, and except in Serbia, this technique is nowadays still used in some parts of Slavonia and Kosovo. We therefore urge women to find inspiration in the works that may be hiding in the dowry chests left over by their grandmothers.
