First project for jewelry this semester is chainmaille based. The theme i choose for semester is political jewelry, with an aesthetic emphasis on pre- and post-world war 1 era jewelry within a contemporary context.
I've three ideas I'm tinkering with, making eyeglasses chain, a mesh purse, or a collar necklace. Here's some basic drawings Ive done on the ideas, followed by chain weaves I had in ind for them as well.
glasses chain:
DAISY 0 CHAIN
mesh purse:
BREJAO FLOWERS 4 IN 1 SHEET
collar necklace:
basic 2x2 linked chain
BYZANTINE 3 HEXAGONAL SHEET
