A Preview… Part III

Tuesday, May 11th, 2010

Finally some more pic­tures of what I’ve been work­ing on!

aluminum byzantine necklaces

Alu­minum byz­antine weave necklaces.

More neck­laces in more colours!

bracelets

Black stain­less (far left) and alu­minum byz­antine weave bracelets.

The black stain­less fades to a won­der­ful dark sheen with con­stant use. The alu­minum are nice and light­weight, and match many of the neck­laces I have avail­able. These brace­lets have no clasp and are instead rolled over the hand to get them on the wrist. Their siz­ing can be eas­ily adjus­ted for a cus­tom fit.

bracelets

Euro 4-in-1 and Half Per­sian 3-in-1 bracelets.

A nickle sil­ver micro­maille euro 4-in-1 clasped brace­let, gal­van­ized steel hp 3-in-1 clasped brace­let, and titanium euro 4-in-1 clasp­less brace­let. The titanium brace­let fea­tures rings that have been heat col­oured by hand.

hair sticks

Black stain­less steel hair sticks.

This match­ing pair of hair sticks fea­tures black stain­less byz­antine weave and scales. They are topped with hem­at­ite beads.

stitch markers

Alu­minum stitch mark­ers for knitting.

This set of col­our­ful flor­ette mark­ers is great for keep­ing track of key stitches in your knit­ting pro­jects. The mark­ers com­fort­ably fit a US10.5 (6.5mm) needle and will prob­ably work on a US11 just fine.

wrist prayer beads

Wrist prayer beads.

This small string of prayer beads is per­fect for when you don’t want to carry a lar­ger set around with you. It has a clasp so that it may be worn about the wrist when not in use, and allows for it to either be used as a strand or in a loop for prayer/meditation pur­poses. It fea­tures white, blue, and green semi-precious stone beads with metal spacers and is fin­ished with a simple steel flor­ette on one end and a large hem­at­ite bead on the other.

bookmark

Byz­antine book­mark with purple scale.

This is one of a few book­marks that I have cre­ated. They all vary in design but gen­er­ally fea­ture micro­maille chains with dec­or­at­ive embel­lish­ments of either chain/scalemaille or bead work. A great way to per­son­al­ize either your books, journ­als, or path-related notebooks.

earrings

A tree full of earrings!

I’ve also made a num­ber of pairs of ear­rings in a vari­ety of dif­fer­ent metals. Pic­tured here are ster­ling sil­ver (left), gal­van­ized steel (front), nickle sil­ver (right), and bronze (back).

I’ve made a gal­lery page for the site where you can eas­ily browse all of the images I have put on the site. It also includes a num­ber of works that are either sold or that are a part of my per­sonal col­lec­tion and there­fore not for sale. I will per­haps put a post up with details on these par­tic­u­lar items in a bit.

I have cur­rently shif­ted my focus away from the chain­maille for the moment and I am work­ing on cre­at­ing some herb scen­ted bath salts, incense and tisane blends. It is my hope to have these ready for Three Rivers Fest­ival as well.
