- Captain Nemo (20,000 Leagues Under the Sea)

The iconic numbers that count down the beginning of a movie are a sure cue that we are about to be entertained. These graphic Trafalgar Limited Edition braces are both elegant and entertaining. Wear them to the Oscar’s or to the next screening of your home movies and let the conversation begin about favorite films, directors and stars.

Trafalgar Limited Edition Braces are hand woven on 120 year old looms. The intricate designs are produced using only the finest denier silk yarns. Because the yarns are so very delicate, they will break if one tries to weave them on today’s looms made for speed. Skilled craftsman are able to produce 5 yards of narrow silk fabric a day at most. With only six colors of yarn to work from the designs are intricate and beautiful conversation pieces incorporating scenes from nature to nostalgia and history to pure fantasy.
Many of the Limited Edition Braces have established themselves as collectible and wearable works of art.
