Soutache (/sˈtæʃ/soo-TASH), also known as Russia braid,[1]: 209  is a narrow flat decorative braid, a type of galloon, used in the trimming of drapery or clothing. Soutache is created by weaving a decorative thread around and between two parallel cords and completely covering the cores; this produces a piece of trim with a braided or herringbone pattern.[2] Often woven of metallic bullion thread, silk, or a blend of silk and wool,[1]: 239  soutache began to be made of rayon and other synthetic fibers in the 20th century.[citation needed]
