[HNW] gold thread embroidery

[Kaitlan Roisendubh]

Is the gold thread as hard to use as the silver?

         Hi,
 I have had a request of making a gentlemans  waistcoat embroidered in real gold thread. The pattern would be satin  stich.
 I have never tryed to make satin stitch with gold  thread so i would like to ask if any here has tryed it. Is it difficult and is  it very late?
 The gentleman wants the embroidery made on a silk  rips.
  
 Bjarne
