Gold Filled Byzantine Link Chainmaille Necklace

$280.00



This gorgeous necklace is an absolute classic. I formed and wove each gold filled link by hand. It's a bit like knitting in metal. The weave is called Byzantine, I guess because that's how old it is. The look is aristocratic, luxurious, and totally timeless. It is also very comfortable. I wear mine almost every day and usually I forget to even take it off to sleep.

The necklace pictured is 16 inches long and weighs 1.5 ounces. Each link has an outside diameter of 6mm and is made of 18 gauge (1mm) gold filled.
Gold fill wire is made with a layer of 14k gold mechanically joined to a base metal. Gold fill very durable and will keep its color for years. You do not have to worry about the metal tarnishing or discoloring.

Of course, the clasp is also handmade. I can make this necklace longer or shorter on request. Extra length is $17.5 an inch. This is a substantial and well constructed piece that will always be in fashion.

I also make this necklace in sterling silver, found here: https://www.etsy.com/listing/70265482/sterling-silver-byzantine-link?ref=shop_home_active_46
