Square Half Persian 4-in-1 Bracelet

Square Half Persian 4-in-1

Square Half Persian 4-in-1

New to the Crescent Maille line — not the weave, but the type of ring it is made from. A beautiful weave, the Half Persian looks, head-on, quite serpentine. It looks totally different from the other angle, like herringbone, and is almost flat. The Half Persian 4-in-1 is notoriously difficult to weave, but well worth it. This variation is made from “square rings,” that is, rings made of square wire (see also the Square Byzantine bracelet). The bracelet is nearly 1/2-inch wide; substantial, industrial, it is equally suitable for a man or a woman.

For sale in the shop; more photos in the gallery.

New: 6-in-1 Spiral Bracelet

This truly lovely weave is a very fine continuous spiral chain made of sterling silver “half round” rings; half round rings are like a cross-section of regular rings, rounded on the outside but flat on the inside. These rings keep the spiral weave locked in place in a way that regular rings cannot.

This bracelet is for sale in the Crescent Maille shop; more photos are in the gallery.
