Inverted Roundmaille with Turkish Corners

This is one of my favorites I used and inverted roundmaille and had to turn the corners with turkish round as the inverted was to rigid and it gave the piece an architectural feel

hello!
I love the look of chainmaille-and you do gorgeous work! is it difficult to work with? I get asked from time to time to make mens jewellery and I think it would be a very good look for a guy- if I knew how to do it  ::)
can you recommend any good tutorials? I like a challenge and I am very curious about trying chainmaille

many thanks
JD

That one looks like it might be tough to do.  Was it?  It is fantastic, though.

It's easy once you get started, getting started is the hard part.
As far as tutorials there is a thread with tons of links here http://handmadeartistsforum.com/forum/index.php/topic,140.0.html

Andrew, that's amazing... I'm branching out the weaves I'm learning... I love how that looks. I, like jendoylebridal get asked to do men's bracelets or necklaces. This is an inspiration. Thanks!
