Ganutell Books Information
Ganutell (usually Handcrafted Flowers but can have other shapes) is a Maltese method of creating flowers by utilising wire and embroidery floss. Ganutell is an old and unique Maltese Art which has just recently been revived.
The books highlight in more detail the method of doing ganutell. These are a must for someone interested to learn ganutell.
Ganutell making consists of first and foremost twisting silver or gold plated thin wire with thread. Thin thread of various colours is used to produce different colour schemes. Soon after assembling the wire and thread, this is twisted over a slightly thicker silver/gold plated wire to produce petals. After creating a number of petals, these are assembled around a bead or pearl so that a flower is shaped. Different sizes are produced according to the sizes of the petals twisted. The petals can be made of different patterns.
