Helm Weave Chainmaille Necklace on Handmade Artists' Shop

Helm Weave Chainmaille Necklace on Handmade Artists' Shop


Helm chainmaille necklace. This necklace is a heavy chain all handmade by cutting my own jumprings , then forming the helm chainmaille weave. Hand-formed hook and eye clasp.
Two different size jumprings, 8mm and 5mm form the weave. Both made from 16gauge copper wire.
Oxidized and tumbled to work harden and give it a beautiful shine.
Gun metal color.
Measures 20 ½ inches in length. Heavy duty chain great for man or woman.
I take special care not to mar each piece I make. Imperfections do happen, but that just add to the character of each piece.
Some believe that wearing copper helps relieve arthritis pain in the joints.
