When the thimble goes to the wrist

Lucky charms that can be customised and are ideal for creating new private labels: Keep Out brings the ancient traditions of Latin America to PTE

It is true that at PTE there is a lot of talk about embroidery techniques, but the precious sewing thimbles presented at the exhibition by Keep Out have a different meaning. Legend has it that in Latin America, grandmothers used to give a silver thimble to their loved ones as a symbol of protection from the dangers of life. This ancestral tradition has been picked up by Keep Out, a brand of jewellery and accessories established in 2014, the year in which it also made the sewing thimble its signature element. The leading product in the collection is called Il Filo Magico (The Magic Thread). It consists of a thimble in silver, bronze or steel to be tied around the wrist with a thread and can be used as a gift for events/holidays or as a placeholder or wedding favour, or even as a bookmark and many other uses by the imagination. Customisable according to the customer’s desires, Il Filo Magico can create real Private Labels inspired by affection, love of beauty and good fortune, hence the brand's payoff: “Keep Out... and life won't sting you!”
