What do ya think of these?
Well...it's not lampwork beads this time...it's chainmaille. Yeppers sometimes I get off the torch and Bob isn't playing with his rocks all the time. All the below have several more pictures but I've got them up in the Etsy store. I just didn't figure ya'll wanted to see multiple view of chainmaille.
The below is European 6 in 1 round weave with 4.5mm sterling rings in 20g wire. The bracelet weighs 1.9oz, has a sterling silver clasp, and is 8.5 inches in length. It took 550 rings to make this dramatic bracelet. Just in case you are interested...we can adjust the length.
Half Persian 3 in 1 (aka Snake) with 6.5mm sterling rings in 16g wire. The bracelet weighs 1.2oz, has a sterling silver clasp, and is 7.5 inches in length. It took 100 rings to make this bracelet.
European 8 in 1 weave with 4mm sterling rings in 21g wire. The bracelet weighs .7oz, has a sterling silver clasp, and is 7 inches in length. It took 280 rings to make this bracelet.
Here's a close up...this one is one of Bob's bracelets. He's kinda the chainmaille guru in this casa.
This is a Turkish Round Byzanitine weave with 2.5mm sterling rings in 21g wire. The bracelet weighs .6oz, has a sterling silver clasp, and is 6 3/4 inches in length. It took 375 rings to make this bracelet.
