La Cannetille: the art of gold thread at the heart of LO NEEL creations

At LO NEEL, embroidery is never just an ornament. It embodies know-how, a culture, and a committed approach. It is in this spirit that the brand incorporates embroidery using Cannetille , an ancestral technique from India, into some of its most iconic pieces.

What is Cannetille?

Cannetille is an embroidery technique using spiraling metal threads—often gold or silver—that are cut and embroidered by hand like tiny tubular beads. Widely used in gold embroidery, it creates raised designs of great finesse and dazzling brilliance. Each stitch requires precision, patience, and dexterity, making it an exceptional craft.

At LO NEEL, this technique is taking on a new lease of life.

On pieces like the Fiby Green shirt , Cannetille becomes a graphic and committed language. Two stylized peacocks, dear to the brand's universe, are embroidered in gold thread using this method, evoking both natural beauty, radiant femininity and the Indian cultural inspiration that permeates the collections.

A tradition in the service of ethics.

True to its values, LO NEEL entrusts the creation of these embroideries to artisans in India, in certified workshops, who ensure fair, ethical, and environmentally friendly work. Integrating Cannetille into its creations is a way for the brand to keep ancestral know-how alive while incorporating it into vegan, sustainable, and high-end fashion.

La Cannetille at LO NEEL is much more than a refined detail: it is the golden thread of a strong commitment, which links craftsmanship, aesthetics and conscience.
