Look at this, my first attempt at chain mail. My daughter does this and has made some fabulous pieces so I decided to give it a go. I was delighted with the outcome. The chain links are bronze and I've joined them with three beautiful lampwork lentil beads and a very nice copper clasp. This sort of work is more time consuming than normal strung beads, so the price of £17.50 reflects materials plus the amount of time taken to make the piece (reduced by one third as I was slower than I will be with more practice).
