Lace, Embroidery, Thread

The Essence of Lecien

Lace is memory.
Woven through time, it carries the elegance and intricacy of European craftsmanship—France, Belgium, and Italy—where beauty was never rushed, and detail meant devotion.

Embroidery is expression.
It is the quiet art of storytelling with thread, rooted in human hands and the rhythm of the heart. From Kyoto, Lecien’s birthplace, flows a sense of balance, space, and understated grace that shapes every stitch.

Thread is connection.
The simplest of forms, yet the foundation of all creation. Thread ties past to present, East to West, material to soul. It is the unseen force that binds our heritage to our vision.

At Lecien, we do not simply make products.
We honor centuries of craft and spirit, cultivating a unique mariage of timeless tradition and contemporary beauty.
Through our brands—COSMO® for embroidery, LECIEN® for intimate apparel, and the Lecien Lace Museum—we preserve, reinterpret, and share the delicate power of lace, embroidery, and thread.
