The Art of Embroidery Stitches

Embroidery stitches are the heart of our craft, each thread meticulously placed to form unique patterns. Unlike mechanical embroidery, our team’s dedication to hand embroidery ensures every stitch reflects skill and care, a tradition we proudly uphold. These stitches aren’t just decorative—they’re a testament to patience and artistry, transforming a simple wall clock into a piece of history. At Embby, we believe the beauty of embroidery stitches lies in their human touch, a quality our artisans bring to every piece they create.

Meet Our Hand Embroidery Team

Our hand embroidery team, rooted in Zhangzhou, consists of 30 trained embroiderers—all women from rural China, including disabled members and students—who bring heart to every stitch. These remarkable women infuse their work with resilience and passion, turning each clock into a story of empowerment. We’ve also partnered with over 20 Suzhou artisans, masters of traditional embroidery, whose expertise elevates our designs with techniques passed down through generations. Together, this team shuns mechanical methods for the authenticity of handwork, ensuring every piece reflects their dedication.

Handmade Clocks: A Labor of Love

Each handmade clock is a labor of love, taking over eight hours of hand embroidery to complete. Our Zhangzhou team weaves intricate stitches into every piece, ensuring that each wall clock stands as a testament to their dedication and artistry. From floral patterns to personalized motifs, the stitches are carefully crafted to enhance the clock’s aesthetic while maintaining its functionality. The silent movement ensures these clocks are as practical as they are beautiful, making them perfect for any space. This hands-on process is what sets our handmade clocks apart, embodying the spirit of true craftsmanship.
