New 💙 Medieval Jewelry Set Each time i create a piece, i pass a little of what i have learn from jewelry history and ancient crafts techniques. Im a self learner, and im very proud of my creations. I could simply shared the finish piece, and that's it...but, i like to take the time to create unique texts to ilustrate from were my inspiration comes...guess that's what makes them unique...at least for me 🥰 So, this new jewelry set was inspired by the history of chain mail. Hope you like it! 🧡 When thinking of chain mail, one cannot help but wonder where it was used for the first time. Accordingly to some historians, chain mail or mail, was firstly used by the Celts or the Romans, still there are others who believe it can be traced back to Asian Countries. Despite this fact, it can be confirmed, that chain mail was used throughout the Middle Ages and at least until the 16th Century. At first, mail armors where consisted by sewing iron rings to fabric or leather in forms that could be adapted to the body. These handcrafted armors, served to protect knights from being cut by their opponents blade. Around the 12th Century, medieval armoures improved significantly. Instead of being sewn on garments, chain mail was independently fabricated, using steel links that where riveted or soldered. Being flexible and allowing movement, and easy to repair if pierced, there were several advantages of using it. Link in bio! You can also choose to buy from my etsy shop.
