Learn how to use the pattern originally used in armor for jewelry making at Link it! Chainmaille Jewelry on Saturday, Feb. 8 from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. in The Studio.
Historically, chainmaille was used as protective armor, as the linked rings resulted in a strong, flexible fabric. Jewelers have adopted the repeatable pattern of the rings to make unique pieces of jewelry. In this workshop, instructor Billie Theide will help students make and source jump rings, create patterns and make jewelry. Students will receive a toolkit to keep, along with a folder of instructional materials to take home.
$100/person. Register at https://allerton.illinois.edu/events/chainmaillejewelry/ by Feb. 1. All sales are final.
If you will need disability-related accommodations in order to participate, please email [email protected].
