My personal quest of chain development started fifteen years ago by utilizing the geometry of Pi to quantify the ancient Byzantine chain. With a deeper insight and appreciation, I began to develop linear, geometric, radial, and organic derivative chain designs to be complimented with or without bead embellishments. To date I have handcrafted 722 jewelry pieces, each saluted with a three-digit-number index ring, originating over 100 unique chain designs. Over the past nine years I have led a variety of beaded chain workshops through public and private educational institutions. The accumulation of these experiences has lead to the publishing of the first, second, and third book in a series on handcrafting chain jewelry, printed by Watson-Guptill Publications (Random House) in NYC. I am now working to self-publish my fourth, fifth, and sixth books. |
