Shape: Chain Making
Description: Title: Elegant Wirecraft Jewelry: Creative Bead Stringing, Handmade Chains, Art-To-Wear
Author: Esther Lee
Self Published, 2002
This book is full of inspirational photographs showing ways to incorporate handmade chain into beautiful pieces of wearable art. The author clearly details how to make three different styles of chain from jump rings with no soldering- you can make your own from wire, or purchase pre-made jump rings. Learn to make Byzantine chain, rope/twist chain, and two-in-two ring chain. Many of the finished gallery pieces showcase simple variations of the three chain types. This book is not filled with step-by-step projects to reproduce, but offers solid tips and techniques in jewelry making, and many examples of the artist's own work that will whet your appetite for wire work. Her examples of how she revitalized her old turquoise costume jewelry into modern wearable pieces were especially motivational! Be sure to check out Elegant Wire craft Jewelry Volume IV as well!
