Silver and Gold Hidden Rose BraceletThis chainmail bracelet is an elegant blend of the flower chain and byzantine weaves, and mixes sterling silver with goldfilled and red anodized aluminum. It is approximately 5mm wide. The design can also be made in 14k. tri-gold (white, yellow, and rose gold). Consider making a set with the matching necklace on the necklaces page. |

Bi-tone Titanium Byzantine BraceletI originally came up with this color patterning for byzantine to satisfy a request from one of my British patrons. In most two color byzantine bracelets there is a main color/metal and an accent color, but for this design both colors are completely equal and blended together. To keep that smooth flow I use the same metal for all the rings (insuring even sizing), and since that metal is anodized titanium, there are still plenty of color options to choose from. The bracelet is approximately 5mm wide. |

Small Round (Snake) Weave BraceletThe weave used in this bracelet is a popular one commonly known as round weave or snake weave. The chain is actually a hollow tube, bounded by 6 fine rings. This style of bracelet requires just over 70 rings per inch, meaning a 7 inch bracelet uses a full 500 rings! Luckily, the result is worth it. |

Very Fine Byzantine BraceletMade entirely from extremely small 1/16" rings, the making of a 7" bracelet requires nearly 400 individual rings to be woven together. This is an extremely intricate piece of chainmail jewelry. As with all my designs, each ring in this bracelet is woven into the pattern by hand. |

Extra Dense Byzantine BraceletsOne of the wonderful attributes of the byzantine weave is that the entire look of the piece is changed when it is made with tight rings instead of loose ones. In this piece that property is utilized and the result is shown to the left. As you can see, the dense nature of the resulting pattern creates a piece that looks very sleek and solid while still being extremely flexible. These bracelets are approximately 5mm wide. |

Small Steel and Goldfilled Byzantine BraceletI love the way stainless steel and goldfill look together, so I decided I had to offer a design that used them both. Slightly different from a normal byzantine weave, this bracelet uses the different properties of the two metals to slightly alter the ring sizes, creating a very different look, even though the weave is the same. |

Light European BandThis piece was designed for those of you who prefer wider and flatter bracelets. This piece is about 3/4" wide and only around 1/8" thick. The inside of the band is done in sterling silver, and the outside two rows are done in goldfill. It is then clasped accross it's full width with a sliding bar or tube clasp. In the future I intend to offer a Dense European Band as well. |

Chainmaile Rope Bracelets
This is the most basic type of chainmaile bracelet design, but it can also be one of the nicest. A rope bracelet is made from a single
strand of any of the weaves on the
ropes page. The standard length for a bracelet of this style is 7 inches
plus the clasp, but they can be made in any length and they can be added to the shopping cart using
the forms in the ropes section of the site. I can also do multi-strand rope bracelets, just
Contact Me. |
