Abstract. Micro-embroidery was considered art at all times, so many products are still kept in museums. Currently, the micro-embroidery technique is very actively used in the manufacture of jewelry and decor that emphasize style, exquisite taste and femininity. The relevance
of this work lies in the development of an effective method for making jewelry with microembroidery with high aesthetic and operational characteristics. In the course of the study, various methods of making jewelry (for example, a brooch) with micro-embroidery were analyzed
using: specialized metal fittings, consisting of three parts: an outer frame, a cabochon and a backdrop; metal fittings with an insert tray (2 options). As a result, it was found that the general disadvantage of the described methods is the absence of any protection of the insert
with embroidery from external contamination during the operation of the jewelry (numerous hand touches, moisture, dust). The practical significance of the proposed method lies in the development of a technology for manufacturing a textile insert with embroidery and directly
assembling jewelry with a protective coating against contamination. The specified technical result is achieved by the method of manufacturing a textile insert with micro-embroidery, the package of which consists of a base material, spacers from a material with a one-sided adhesive
coating and a finishing thread. The results obtained also make it possible to use the main material (fabrics for embroidery) more economically, to protect the decoration surface from dirt by coating the micro-embroidery with textured gel, while the colors and halftones of the
embroidery acquire deeper saturation. The gel is an additional protection of the image from possible abrasions and other damages during its "life". Due to the use of a finishing thread in the manufacture of a brooch, it is also possible to use a more varied decoration of jewelry.
