Mens jewelry Chainmaille mens bracelets in sterling silver European 4-in-1 wave. Mens fashion by Arctida

I was going through my mens jewelry collection and realized that I haven't showed you one of my popular designs - *Dionysos*.

For this bracelet I use European 4-in-1 chainmaille wave. European 4-in-1 is most famous for being the weave used in European knights' armor. Each hefty, 18 gauge sterling silver ring is hand coiled, hand cut, and polished smooth before weaving the bracelet, heavily oxidizing and again polishing to a high shine. It’s finished with a tube clasp for easy, secure fastening.

 

Dionysos is for sale in my Arctida shop.

Mens necklace Spiral chainmaille necklace in sterling silver. Mens jewelry by Arctida

Here comes the latest addition to my mens jewelry collection. This time it is a massive spiral necklace for men in sterling silver. I've chosen a classic Spiral chainmaille weave pattern for this one.

Chainmaille is an ancient art of weaving together individual rings to create simple and elegant jewelry. Each sterling silver ring is hand coiled, hand cut, and polished smooth by me before weaving the chain and again polished to a high shine. It’s finished with a simple lobster clasp for easy, secure fastening.

Lyrelle - Carnelian Lapis lazuli necklace 14K gold filled complementary colors necklace. Handmade jewelry by Arctida.

As you've probably noticed I've been making a lot of gemstone cluster necklaces in different color-combinations lately :) I love the simplicity of the design and it also gives me a chance of trying out a lot of unusual (for me) combinations of colors for more complicated designs in the future. This time I decided to try just two complementary colors: Cobalt Blue and bright Orange. So here is my latest necklace *Lyrelle* with Carnelian and Lapis lazuli gemstones wire wrapped in 14K gold filled.
