Hello hubbers! I figured it was about time that I show off some of my work. Just so you know, I am in the process of moving and my studio won't be set up for around a month so if you like something and are interested in it, know that it may take a while. In any case, send me a message and we may be able to work something out.

Because of this, I won't put up my website link until I have my studio up, but those who are clever will be able to find it on the web right away.

How many of you hubbers are familiar with Chainmaille jewelry?

  • Sure, I even have a few items.
  • I've seen it but it is to exotic for me.
  • I really like the look of it, but haven't had the chance to wear any.
  • What is chainmaille? Isn't that what goes in my spam folder?

The first piece I'll show you is a custom watch. When its made with drilled and polished irregular stones you get a watch that really "pops". This one required a lot of fitting, and since the customer wasn't near me, she had to send it back to me to make it smaller. It just goes to show that a toggle clasp really isn't the best closure for a watch.

The next item was also a custom order. Made with Sterling Silver rings in the Byzantine pattern and offset by natural Swarovski crystal. This necklace has a very nice heft and feel and it sure does shine in the sun!

Custom Triangle Byzantine

The pendant below is one of my favorites to make and display. The cross uses a pattern called Full Persian 6in1 and is hung on a JPL(Jens Pind Linkage) chain. Very simple but really elegant.

The following bracelet is made from what I believe to be the best selling and most known pattern in the world of chainmaille jewelry, Byzantine. It has a lovely weight and the Argentium Silver really shines.
