Copper full persian chain maille necklace

Img_9460 Img_9579This weave is the "full persian 6-in-1", otherwise known as the foxtail weave.  It's an airy looking weave and it turned out fairly well, except for one mistake which I feel compelled to point out.  You can see it at the bottom curve of the 2nd picture.
Here's a closeup:Img_9578flaw (click on the picture to get a better view).
It isn't hugely apparent, though.

Price: $40 (shipping is free)

Copper shaggy loops chain maille bracelet + earrings

Img_9597_2 Img_9442_2 Img_9599_2The weave for this bracelet is called "shaggy loops" or "flip-flop" because of the movement it makes.  When you shake it, the moving loops make a faint little tinkly sound, so you wouldn't want to be wearing it if you were trying to sneak up on someone.

The bracelet is about 7 inches long, and about 5-6mm thick, with a weight of 0.5 oz.  The rings used for the weave are copper, as is the toggle clasp.

I made earrings to match with solid copper French hooks.  The dangles are about an inch long, and the earrings weigh 0.2 oz.

Price: $25 (shipping is free)
