Handmade in South Carolina
Chainmail gives me the opportunity to blend my love of color by adding various stones to a
weave, and my love of precision with the actual weave. Rings are woven into various patterns that date from the Celtics in 300BC. Using precious metals, semi-precious stones and crystals, the patterns take on a life of their own. These unique patterns are unusual in today’s world.
Over the past 10 years, I’ve had the pleasure of teaching several chainmaillers some of the more intricate patterns. With continuing education, my knowledge has expanded into other areas of jewelry design.
That love of color has been the core of my life taking me from learning to sew at 8 years old, to fiber arts, interior design, embroidery, painting, and even card making.
I look forward to exploring new techniques and evolving new designs for my clients.
