> What is "soie ovale”?

Au ver a Soie Ovale is a very lightly twisted filament silk floss - the sort 
used for satin stitch embroidery
I measured it as 13 wraps/cm, but that gives a false impression that it is 
quite thick, if it was twisted as much as most thread it would be considerably 
more wraps/cm

I’ve not seen any of that, but Google comes up with the Zurcher-Stalder website
https://zsag.abacuscity.ch/en/home

They have a 20/2 mercerised cotton

and a 20/2 tussah silk

so it could be either of those
