Industry & Occupation
Classification
Summary
Artisan who manually attaches decorative materials such as pearls and beads to fabrics or products.
Description
Pearl attachers use needles, thread, and sometimes special adhesives to fix pearls one by one onto fabrics or accessories. They perform precise positioning, uniform spacing, and maintain beautiful finishes, often using high-magnification magnifying glasses. They mainly handle small-batch, custom-made products for high fashion, traditional crafts, and accessory brands, and also conduct appearance and strength checks as well as quality control upon completion.
Future Outlook
While stable demand is expected in high-end fashion and traditional crafts, the advancement of mechanization will increase the rarity of manual artisans.
