A graduate from the Medill School of Journalism at Northwestern University, Rebeca worked in media relations and nonprofit development for seven years. She managed several of the most successful PR campaigns ever for various businesses and nonprofits. Though her successes made her happy, in the back of her head was a nagging feeling that she […]
My name’s Nicole, and I live on the south coast of France, having moved here recently from the UK. I live very near the sea, and it energises me, providing me with endless inspiration and space to think through designs – I hope you like the results! I make chainmaille and wire-wrapped jewellery using silver […]

My love of chainmaille began while working on my Medieval History degree in London where I spent my spare time wandering around the medieval galleries of various museums there. The chainmaille armour always caught my eye. The intricacy of all those little rings making up a complete garment was simply amazing. I always wondered how […]

Maille armour is the oldest known form of metal armouring in the world. Carbon dating places early celtic examples at 2000 years old. Samples of surviving Etruscan maille may be 3000 years old. Staggering to think that you’re engaging in a practice virtually unchanged since 1000 B.C.E isn’t it? In most of the world, that’s […]
In trying to tap the creative gene I feel I must have inherited from my Mom (the painter) I’ve tried several different crafts: knitting, basket weaving, drawing, water color painting, cross stitch & embroidery, quilting, stained glass, mosaics, and more. But none “stuck” until I took my first jewelry making class in 2007. After filling […]
