Persian Weaves

Persian weaves are a particular family of chainmaille weaves that are very difficult to find historically.  There is not much (if any) evidence that it was ever actually used in the Persian Empire.  In the research I've done, the consensus seems to be that it is a more modern family of weaves that was named Persian as a nod to the intricacies of the designs.  There are so so many weaves in the Persian family.  I feel like I have barely begun to scratch the surface of what I will be able to do with this family of weaves.  

Here are a few examples:

Full Persian Earrings in Anodized Aluminum

Full Persian Bracelet and Earrings in Enameled Copper



















Half Persian Heart Necklace in Anodized and Bright Aluminum

Persian Dragonscale Bracelet in Bright Aluminum





















Rings and Kits for all pieces completed are from Weave Got Maille and Hyperlynks.

Viper Weaves

Viper Basket Bracelet in Anodized Aluminum Viper Basket is a name that is used for the doubled ring version of Orbital Vipera Berus.  It is a very easy, but great looking weave.  It is a 2 in 2 chain with larger rings "orbiting" each set of 2 to make the rings change direction and gives the weave a more intricate look. Viper Basket Bracelet with matching Earrings Vipera Berus is also called Northern Viper by some and is "the third bastard son of mixing European Styles and Hoodoo." Vipera Berus Bracelet in Anodized Aluminum I don't know too much about either of these weaves and I think it's because they are both variations of other weaves.  They are both amazing looking weaves though and lots of fun to do. I have only made one piece out of each of these weaves, so there are unfortunately not too many pictures to show.  I did make a matching pair of Viper Basket Earrings, but I don't know if the Vipera Berus would make good earrings or not....

New Pieces

I haven't been too great at remembering to update the blog, but I do have another collection of new pretties to share! First off, a tiny fidget toy!!! It's super cute and actually fits inside the bigger one! :D  Fidgets!  Second, a lovely pendant in aluminum, rubber, and rainbow hematite.  It's called the Compass Pendant. Compass Pendant Infinity Cradle Bracelet Closeup This third piece is called Infinity Cradle. It is a twist on the European 4 in 1 weave with beads!  I actually had enough pieces left over from the bracelet to make matching earrings and a simple necklace.  Colors would be very versatile in this piece and the type of bead used can change the whole look.  Infinity Cradle full set  The next piece is another European 4 in 1 style cuff bracelet.  It's called the Ruffles Cuff.  Ruffles Cuff Closeup Ruffles Cuff Glass Butterfly Earrings  Following the lovely Ruffles Cuff, we have ...
