Copper Chainmaille Bracelet

Copper metal

Turquoise bead

 

Hand fashioned links made of copper metal 20 ga wire

This technique is called chainmaille

Each link is connected using flat nose pliers and it is a very tedious job but well worth the time it takes to do this

The result is a beautiful slinky feeling bracelet that connects on the top with a hand fashioned clasp with a turquoise bead as an embellishment feature.

The length of this copper bracelet is 7 inch x 1 inch wide

Copper overtime will tarnish and if you like to restore it back to the shine simplest way to do this is using ketchup by leaving it immersed in the ketchup for approximately 5 minutes

Then wash with Dawn dish soap to clean using a soft tooth brush.
