Create an exquisite and intricate looking cuff bracelet in the tradition of Japanese chain mail.

Follow step-by-step photos to learn the basics of this chain mail weave and how to work towards professional standards.

Because it takes many rings to make this bracelet, you will not complete it in class. Make it with either sterling silver silver-filled, or with Jeweller’s Bronze rings.

All tools supplied for class use. Optional: eyeglasses or magnifiers, personal tools.

The kit includes step-by-step, illustrated instructions, Sterling Silver, SS10 Silver-Filled or Jeweller’s Bronze jump rings in 3 sizes and a toggle clasp.

There are sufficient rings for a 8.75 inch bracelet; and all rings are saw-cut and polished.

Marilyn Gardiner

Marilyn has a passion for creating jewellery. This is her new lease on a life — she is a retired teacher and school-board computer consultant.

Three interwoven paths are developing in her life. The first is a love of pattern and design from different eras and cultures and its reflection in her bead work and designs. The second is her enjoyment of teaching adults, and the third is the satisfaction of developing beadwork kits with clear, step-by-step directions and diagrams that really work with learners. Many of her beading skills were self-taught using books, the internet, and trial and error but she enjoys seeking out and travelling to learn from experts such as Don Pierce, Virginia Blakelock & Carol Perrenoud (bead loom), William Hodge, Marla Gassner, & David Chatt (off-loom beading), Jennie Might (bead crochet), Bette Kelley (broadcollars), Rod Owen (Kumihimo), Jennifer Campbell & Sharilyn Miller (wirework), Jay Humphreys (PMC), and Fred Zweig (silverwork). She teaches classes in Waterloo Region, Toronto, Calgary, Texas and Arizona.
