Okay, so most people think of knights in shining armor and Game of Thrones as soon as they hear the word "chainmaille". As an Offbeat Bride myself, I struggled to find jewelry that looked elegant but was also strong enough to survive my chronic clumsiness. Seriously: I destroy everything. Fine metals were not in my budget, and "dainty" is destined for the scrap heap in my world. So I turned to an art form that was rare, bold, and made to last.
