Pale Green Stone Maille Wrapped Pendant

Sat, 19 Dec 2009 12:13:14 -0500

$16.00
A very dainty and feminine piece, this pendant features a pretty pale green stone wrapped in bright aluminum rings, with a silver-plated bail. I think this would look great on either a thin black cord or thin silver chain.
The chain wrap is held on via quite a lot of industrial strength epoxy (E6000). It holds quite well, and should last so long as no one deliberately tries to remove the wrap.

I admit I have no idea what this stone is. I bought it in a mixed lot and nothing was labelled. My best guess is that this might be some sort of fancy jasper, becuse that comes in a large variety of colors and often has dark inclusions and swirls like what you see in this pendant. Your guess is as good as mine! All I know is that I like the color, and I think it makes for a pretty pendant.

The cabochon itself is 20x16mm, and with the wrapping is 26x21mm, not counting the bail.

I will ship this wrapped in tissue and inside a gift box.

Half Persian 3-in-1 Chainmaille Doll Bracelet - You Pick Custom Colors

Sat, 19 Dec 2009 12:13:14 -0500

$5.00
Handmade just for you! ^_^

You get to pick which colors of aluminum and rubber rings you like, and I'll make it for you. Simple as that! Pick colors to represent your favorite cause, sports team, school, zodiac sign, or just because you like the look of them together.

Aluminum Colors:
Red / Orange / Yellow / Green / Blue / Purple / Black / Bronze (Brown) / Magenta (Light Purple) / Pink / Turquoise / Gold / Silver (Plain Bright Aluminum)

EPDM Rubber Colors:
Red / Orange / Yellow / Green / Blue / Purple / Black / White

Put what color of metal and what color of rubber you want in the "Note to Seller" message box during checkout. If you have any questions, just convo me here on Etsy.

About the Bracelet:
Half-Persian 3-in-1 is a fun weave because it's two-sided, and the open quality of it gives it plenty of stretch. It stretches easily over my doll's rather large hands. In case you were wondering, Roland's been wearing his bracelet for a little while now and the rubber hasn't stained his resin.

Roland is an Abio Angel San and his wrist is roughly 6.5 cm. around; the bracelet relaxed is around 7 cm. (It's tough to measure something so small!) The bracelet easily stretches to 9 cm. and should fit over the hands of most 60 cm. dolls. Look at the other doll-sized bracelets in my shop for reference photos.

Turnaround Time: One week at most
Measures: 7 inches / 17.8 cm. unstretched

*I tried to capture the colors as best as I could, but please keep in mind that all monitors are not the same and your chainmaille might look different in person. If you're unsure about the colors peek around the shop - I use a lot of color in my maille and what's already here should give you a good idea of what things actually look like.

Leviathan - Chainmaille Necklace

Sat, 19 Dec 2009 12:13:03 -0500

$55.00
Powerful and eye-catching, "Leviathan" is not a necklace for the subtle. Made in three colors of anodized aluminum: black, blue, and turquoise, it was inspired by the dangerous and as-yet-unexplored recesses of the ocean. Although large, it is lightweight due to it's aluminum construction, and it fastens with a silver-plated lobster claw clasp. And because it's aluminum, it won't rust should you decide to take it on an underwater adventure of your own.

This necklace ships in a white cardboard jewelry box, ready for yourself or the special water creature in your life.

Measures 20 inches / 50.8 cm.

Airship Pirate - Bronze Steampunk Chainmaille Watch Fob - OOAK

Mon, 14 Dec 2009 17:42:15 -0500

$35.00
For the dashing airship pirate captain!

This is a one-of-a-kind watch fob with handmade bronze maille chains suspending a coin from unknown shores and a vintage brass WW2 military stamping. The stamping was originally intended to be used as a pin for the balloon brigades, but with the advent of airplanes many of them went unused. It is not a flimsy filigree-style stamping; it's quite substantial!

I punched holes in both the stamping and the coin for attaching the chains, and I arranged the coin to hang so that it shows off the crossed rifles on the "tails" side; there seems to be a laurel branch overlaying the rifles. This can mean peace or victory, but I'll leave that to you. The opposite side shows the profile of a rather stern-looking man with long hair and a moustache wearing a cap, and both sides have Greek lettering. The clip for attaching the fob is a standard brass pocketwatch clasp, and swivels.

This watch fob looks great hanging out of a pants pocket, but even better hanging from a high vest or shirt pocket. It looks very much like a medal or insignia of rank when worn that way, so wear it with pride! It hangs quite nicely as you can see.

Measures 7 inches / 17.8 cm from clip to ballon basket, and 3 1/8 inches / 7.9 cm from wingtip to wingtip.

I will ship this inside of a white cardboard jewelry gift box, ready for giving to yourself (because you earned it!) or to a friend.

And so you know, my husband's pocketwatch is NOT for sale - It's a standard size so I have that in there for scale. He would be sad if he lost it because he uses it every day and it's so much nicer than pulling out a cel phone to check the time.

$50.00
Unusual and elegant, these earrings are perfect for special occasions or if you want to give that special someone something truly different.

The chains cradling the pale green Swarovski crystals are handwoven from dozens of 14k yellow gold rings. The ear hooks are also made from gold, so people with metal sensitivities should be able to wear them. The crystals are securely held in place without adhesive and balanced; they will not "fall off" the chain swing or tip.

They will be shipped in a small white gift box, cushioned with tissue paper for a safe journey. I will add insurance to the shipping for extra safety.

Other colors of crystal are available if these are needed to match items for a wedding or other event. Plese convo me here on Etsy or e-mail me at brandyrabbitdance (at) gmail (dot) com for information.

Black Diamonds - Black and Silver Chainmaille Earrings

Mon, 30 Nov 2009 13:12:31 -0500

Blood and Crystals - Chainmaille Necklace for BJD - SD Size

Mon, 30 Nov 2009 13:12:30 -0500

$30.00
For elegant, aristocratic dolls with a bit melancholy, this necklace is sure to please. The bronze maille medallions are accented with Czech glass drops, with mathing Czech crystals set between them. The vintage brass locket in the center can hold a terrible secret or a fervent hope, but that is for you to know.

Roland is modeling it at its tightest, and it sits perfectly in the hollow of his collarbone. It might look much better on a lady, but as you can see it looks nice on boys, as well.

I will ship this out in a white gift box, wrapped securely in tissue paper for extra security.

Measures 5.25 inches / 13.3 cm at its shortest, 5.75 inches / 14.6 cm at its longest.

Note: You are buying ONLY the necklace, not the doll. Roland is not for sale, he is the only employee I have!

Bound - Chainmaille Necklace for BJD - SD Size

Mon, 30 Nov 2009 13:12:30 -0500

$20.00
For dolls that need to practice a bit more restrait, or who are bound by duty, honor, or what-have-you, this stainlesss steel necklace is a perfect symbol. As you can see with Roland it's a rather long necklace, so on dolls with slender waists it could even function as a belt.

The metal lock is a non-functioning charm and it fastens with a small swivel lobster clasp. That way, if the maille ribbon gets twisted while dressing your doll it will be easy to correct.

I will ship this out in a small white gift box, wrapped in tissue paper to keep it safe.

Measures 7 3/8 inches / 18.7 cm long. It can fit around my wrist as well, so if your wrist measures less than that you could potentially get a bracelet out of the deal, as well.

Note: You are buying only the necklace, and NOT the doll in the picture. He's a model, and the only employee I have!
