J's Sterling Silver Byzantine Rose Bracelet

 I love making chain maille bracelets, especially Byzantine bracelets and variations of Byzantine.  The design is so beautiful and fun to make.


This bracelet is called Byzantine Rose, and it is made out of sterling silver rings.  I used a sterling lobster clasp with an adjustable chain.


The sterling rings are 16 gauge, 4.5 mm and 7 mm.  I really love how it turned out.


My notes:  1 oz. 4.5 mm 16 g.  1/2 oz. 7 mm, 16 g rings.  One whole segment Byzantine separated by a rose.  6 roses, 7 byzantine segments. Oval Lobster SS 16.8.  5 rings, adjustable.  About 7 5/8" - 8 1/2" finished.  

Silver 4.5 mm 16 g. 22 per inch in Byzantine.  Byzantine rose:  14 rings byzantine per inch  Flower, 3 rings per flower.  Smaller byzantine 18 g. 3.5 mm= 28 rings per inch.   2, 2, 2 rings, then flip.  Flower, then 2,2,2, flip.
