Trebizond is a beautiful 3-ply twisted 100% silk thread, made in France. It's thick, soft and luminous, and is well suited for many creative endeavors, such as making hand-bound buttonholes in place of gimp, or for doing hand embroidery that has lots of texture. It is 1,350 Denier, similar in weight to a Size 5 perle cotton. Be sure to choose a needle with a big enough eye for this thread, such as Betweens, Sharps Size 5, or an assorted size pack.
Each spool has 10 meters of thread, which equals just under 11 yards.
