jewellery that names the feeling

craftedbydavs is a one-woman chainmaille studio in Hong Kong. every piece starts as a coil of stainless steel and hundreds of individual rings — cut, linked and closed by hand into weaves like the byzantine.

and each one gets a name. sharp tears. emerald vines. a circular ladder. they're feelings with sharp edges, made wearable.

      woven by hand

      two pliers, one ring at a time. weaves like the byzantine come together link by link — no shortcuts.

    3. 03

      named & finished

      the finished piece gets its name — and then it's yours. watch the whole process happen on instagram.
