Behind the Design: The name Iseld is forged from the Old Norse root words íss, meaning ice, and eldr, meaning fire, capturing the primal elemental clash of frozen steel and raw flame. This heavy 9 mm Byzantine weave is woven from robust 14 AWG (16swg) Stainless Steel rings whose bright, cold metallic shine locks in the rich, fiery crimson hues of 6 mm undrilled red agate spheres. The entire architectural piece is secured with a heavy-duty 20 mm Stainless Steel spring o-ring clasp, completing a high-shine, high-contrast circuit of ice and fire.
Quick Answers
How do I care for the bracelet?
Built for daily wear. Put it on before work and go. Take it off before the gym, the shower, swimming, or bed, and avoid contact with perfumes, lotions, and abrasive surfaces. The finish is durable for everyday wear, but moisture and friction can dull it over time. To clean, wipe gently with a soft, dry cloth and store in a dry place.
What is Byzantine chainmail?
Byzantine is a chainmail weave where pairs of rings fold back through each other to form a dense, rope-like chain. It is one of the heavier, more sculptural chainmail weaves.
What does "captured stones" mean?
Captured stones are held in place by the surrounding rings rather than strung on wire. They are secured within the structure and do not move freely along the bracelet.
Is the bracelet flexible or rigid?
Chainmail is flexible, but less flexible than standard chain link. It moves naturally with the wrist, but forcing it into tight angles can damage the structure.
Is this bracelet handcrafted?
Yes. Each ring is placed and connected by hand, creating the final structure.
How do you open and close the spring o-ring clasp?
Press the hinged section of the ring inward to open it, slip the end ring over it, and let it spring closed.
