Chain maille bracelet 10 inches , Copper and brass wire, red glass beads | |
I recently started working on my jewellery again and promptly fell in love with this amazing technique.-Chainmaille!!
I love chainmaille for two reasons,
- It looks really complicated ( so makes you look like you know what you are doing !! )
- And it looks Stunning !!
Having recently acquired a
jump ring making machine, it was just so much fun and easy . I used 14 gauge copper for the larger rings that form the main portion of the design and 20 gauge copper and brass rings for the smaller pieces. The only reason I thought of adding the red beads on the side was because I wanted to show off the extra rings on the side! :)
The bracelet is slightly on the larger side, but it does have extra rings so it is adjustable, and because of its length it can also be worn as an anklet.
Hey Nayna! Your jewelry is lovely. This looks great as an anklet! I am always looking for other jewelry makers, and you paint too. I paint in oils mostly, but also acrylic and pencil. As for beading, mainly stringing, and I am starting to do some wire wrapping too. Keep up the good work.
ReplyDeleteThank you Christine :)
ReplyDeleteI think whether its painting or creating jewellery colour adds so much to the design dosen't it, I am working on some enameled stuff as well hope to add it here soon
Warm Regards
