	Need a little extra protection when you go out clubbing? This stainless steel shirt with 1/2" X .078" dia. rings will do the trick. Half sleeves with a pullover design, this shirt will take a knife.
	This galvanized steel shirt uses 1/2" X 14AWG rings with a brass cross inlaid in the chest. These rings are strong enough to take a knife and will serve you well in a knife attack. Weight is about 20 lbs., fits up to 40" chest.
	This shirt is made from forty recycled plastic bracelets. It has been reborn as a "Ben Hur" style shirt, featuring galvanized steel links between the plastic plates. Fits up to a 40" chest. There is only one shirt like this, I will never make another because the materials were a one-time buy.
	Our Model is wearing a black swag chain shirt. Ever seen that chain used to hold hanging lamps to the ceiling? That's what this shirt is made from. Fits up to a 48" chest, looks cool either by itself, or with a white undershirt or camo shirt beneath it.
	Our fellow is looking nasty in an annealed steel 3/4 sleeve shirt and galvanized steel balaclava-style hood trimmed around the eyes and mouth with annealed steel and around the 6" mantle with brass. The annealed steel looks gorgeous with pretty much anything. It starts with black powder-covered rings. Once the piece is finished, I throw it into a tumbler with WD-40 and rags, and change the rags every 4 hours until they come out clean. The finished piece comes out gleaming like black chrome. It needs a little more care than galvanized steel, but the look is well worth it. Just keep it dry and squirt it with WD-40 or kerosene now and then and wipe it dry. If it starts to rust on you, tumble it with rags and WD-40 as described.

Here we have a galvanized steel vest using 1/2" dia. rings made from 14AWG wire. This ring size has been battle-tested in some of the local night-spots, and will stop a knife attack. The closures are snap-apart keychains. This versatile and functional piece looks very cool by itself, with a white undershirt, over a dress shirt, or as the vest portion of a 4-piece suit. The galvanized finish will start out shiny and come down to a beautiful matte grey in a matter of months.

This ready-for action knight is wearing a pair of galvanized steel leggings. The soles of the feet are leather, and the tops of the leggings (under the tabard) sport leather fringes. Because of the nature of leggings, several fittings may be necessary. They require a range of movement similar to the arm, but closing the bottom and holding up the top with suspenders means the custom fit has to be a little more exact.

	I met this handsome fellow at the Fergus Scottish Festival in August 2002. Yep, that's chain mail on his bike. Both fenders and the tank. The hood and jacket are mine, the bike-work is not. The hood is 3/8" 316L stainless with a leather tie around the face to keep the chin from sagging. Jacket is a heavyweight motorcycle jacket with 316L 3/8" stainless rings on the undersides of the arms. This I call a Defender's Jacket. Why? When attacked by a knife, your first instinct is to raise your arm. This way you won't get cut.  The chain is looped through a suede lace sewn to the seams of the jacket, that way I don't have to pierce the leather to attach the chain; much less chance of ripping out.

	This piece started out as a thrift store find. It was a pull-up genie-style outfit with gathered and elasticized pant legs and an ugly gold belly accent that screamed 80's. A little sewing machine time and the pant legs became a full-flowing skirt. A little wire knitting time and the ugly gold belly accent was replaced with a sexy and revealing brass insert. This piece sold for $60 because there was so little chain mail in it. If you have  something in your closet that you just don't wear anymore, I can breathe new life into it by adding a bit of chain mail in sexy places.
	Rubber and stainless steel mix in this skirt to offer something that chain mail doesn't usually have: S-T-R-E-T-C-H. Simply pull it up and it stays. It doesn't matter if you gain or lose a few pounds, it'll still fit tight without restricting movement. Price: $200 - $300 depending on size and length
	These two girls are out clubbing in their stainless steel corsets. As you can see these corsets can be made to fit any bust size from A to  FF and can be made long or short. Couple it with a black skirt as these ladies have done and you're ready for a night of clubbing, or just staying in and teasing your mate. The first couple of columns of rings on each side of the laces are brazed closed for added strength so that they're not going to pull apart under the stress of tightlacing. Cords are available in various colours. Stainless  Corset: $125 - $300 depending on size & length

 

Chain mail skirt, aluminum tank top and stainless-trimmed leather jacket? Why not? Throw it all over a simple black bodystocking and you've got a look hot enough to get you into (and safely out of!) any bad bar in town. Feminine with edge. If this girl likes you you're in for a treat. If not, stay politely the hell out of her way... Stainless Flyup Skirt: $360 Stainless-Trimmed Leather Jacket, Size: Medium: $128 Aluminum Adjustable Strap Tank Top: $240

			Here we're mixing a stainless-trimmed leather jacket with a stainless corset, PVC skirt and black heeled boots. The stainless is attached to the jacket by a hand-sewn strip of suede lacing following the existing lines of the jacket. This way I'm not punching holes in the leather to accommodate the steel rings and risking them ripping out.  Great Goth wear. It's attitude, but fun attitude. Stainless-Trimmed Leather Jacket, Size Medium: $128 Stainless Long Corset: $150 - $300 depending on size.
			This beauty is showing off in her stainless steel flyup skirt and double-purple titanium bikini top. The bikini top is completely adjustable in fit and band size by adjusting the knots at the corners of the triangles. Once you adjust it to fit you, you'll never need to adjust it again. This young lady really knows how to make that skirt go. Standard belt loops are offered so that you can add a leather or chain belt to hold it in place. Coupled with a black leotard or simple thong as shown, this skirt would look and feel great at any dance club in town. Top(A - C cup): $128 Skirt: $360
			Chain mail is strong and sensuous when mixed with  a PVC corset top and a good blade. This Gladiator's skirt uses hooks on the inside and outside to fit and adjust to many different waist sizes. Since it doesn't need to be slid up over the hips, fewer rings are needed and the price for a skirt like this is less than a comparable flyup skirt. Price: about $200 - $300 depending on size

 

	Here our model is mixing the stainless flyup skirt with a galvanized steel half-shirt and red satin corset top. What a great look for clubbing. Galvanized Steel Half-Shirt: $300 Stainless Flyup Skirt: $360 Chain Belt: $0.50 /inch
	mmmm, Titanium! This purple titanium crisscross dress looks like nothing when it's hanging in the closet, but comes alive when on a body. The rings are 1/4" dia. and closed properly so they're not going to catch, pinch, or pull hair. Match it with a little back dress and long-strap purple purse as shown here, or throw it over a black or skin-tone body stocking for a more striking effect. The crisscross dress is one of the most versatile pieces I've made. Because fo the design, one size will fit from a 7 - 24 and still look good. To save a little money, I can custom make the piece so it sits exactly right. You'll notice that the diamonds appear a little elongated in this picture. If the dress were made exactly for our model, the diamonds would be even. Purple Titanium CrissCross Dress, Size Large: $420
	This handsome fellow in the galvanized steel vest ($424) and steel twist-rope necklace ($20) has a difficult choice for a dance partner. On the left she's showing off a dusted aluminum  suede strap tube dress ($700), while the girl on the right is wearing a backless/sleeveless small-ring top ($1500) and black satin skirt with crisscross stainless box chain ($200). I think I know which way he's leaning...
	Our fellow in the black swag chain muscle shirt ($240) is proud to have his lady show off in this dusted aluminum angel dress with floating hem ($2100). This never-to-be-repeated dress can be worn over sexy lingerie, plain white cotton bra & panties as shown here, or a skin-tone bodysuit. Perfect for slow dancing, or just to stand & model. Where would you wear this? Valentine's Day is coming, and I rent...

		I like this flyup skirt with the floating hem ($340). This trick is done by putting a loop of wire in the hem to hold it out. The dusted aluminum suede strap halter ($180) and long-strap purse ($62) complete the outfit. Her escort is wearing a galvanized steel T-shirt ($630) and open-face hood with mantle ($170), and a copper 6-in-1 knit bracelet ($20). The shirt bears the Celtic rune symbols of Protection and the Sacred Warrior, thus ensuring safety in battle. With a dance partner this attractive, he's going to need all the help he can get.
		Our model on the left is ready for all-night dancing in her dusted aluminum suede strap top ($120) and dusted aluminum jinglebelt ($80). The beauty on the right is set to wow the boys at the beach in her dusted aluminum suede-strap bikini top ($130) and small-ring triangle wrap($1500). I think the matching handflowers on these ladies are a nice touch ($20).

 
 

Here we have better pictures of the small-ring dusted  aluminum top & skirt shown above separately. These were originally designed to be a dress but when I put them on my model for fitting, she said, "Leave it as two separate pieces! I love it!" This makes for a more versatile outfit. The outfit can be paired up with a black corset and fishnet stockings as shown here, or with a classic simple black dress, or even a skin-tone bodysuit for dramatic effect. The top can be paired with jeans or used as the vest of a business suit. The bottom makes a gorgeous beach or poolside wrap. The top and bottom are both adjustable, the top via a black stretch-hook strap in the small of the back, and the skirt with a suede tie at the waist. A screaming good deal, considering this was six months' work, and I'll never make another exactly like it.  Top: About $1500  Skirt: About $1500

This vest is a one-of-a-kind item, never to be repeated. My newest piece features soft brown suede cut to accent the female form, accented with a brass single-knit cable chain front panel insert. Not too heavy, and very sexy. Size: Medium  Price: About $100

	Here we have  an aluminum double-knit bikini top with suede straps, accented by an aluminum 1/4" ring belt with brass buckle. Bikini top is dusted so it won't rub off black against your skin, and fits an AA or A cup. Top sells for $128. Belt sells for $1/inch.
	This gorgeous piece is a dusted aluminum suede-strap gown with adjustable neckline. There are three shoulder straps on each side. Their length, the width of the dress and the depth of the neckline can be adjusted by untying the hanging straps at the front, letting them in or out, and retying. By this method, the same dress looks good on a size 4 or 16 woman. Our model is showing off this dress with black thong panties and pasties. A more provocative look with more conservative underclothes can be achieved with a skin-tone bodysuit. Price: depends on size and length - about $700.
	Here we have a big-ring dusted aluminum tank top and suede-tied big ring skirt. Our model is showing these off with a black stretch tank-top and long black stretchy skirt beneath it. Lots of room to move and dance, and looks fabulous with those kick-your-ass dancing boots. Top: about $120 Skirt: about $180.

		This young lady is looking provocative with a brass bishop's mantle over a black longline strapless bra and a black suede & brass skirt. The skirt has the sides slitted nearly to the top and filled with 3/8" brass rings, and trimmed along the bottom to give it that slow flowing movement. With a thong bikini under the skirt, she looks sexily bare. The 1/4" ring brass belt looks great around the midriff, or around the skirt. Where would you wear this? Valentine's Day's coming...  Brass bishop's mantle: about $200. Suede & brass skirt: about $150

			Wow! Dusted aluminum cropped top with a dusted aluminum flyup skirt. The top is adjustable by a single suede strap that passes over both shoulders, across the back, and ties in front. This makes it completely adjustable for a perfect fit, no matter which of your friends borrows it. This skirt will magically lift right up when the wearer spins. You can see the action on the skirt in these pictures; look how the hem is flowing with every confident step she takes. Top: $120 Skirt: $330
			Oh, I wish I had better pictures. Our lovely model is showing off a dusted aluminum suede strap top for women with a bustline. The chain comes up to the top of the shoulder for better coverage, and the suede straps take over from there. Again, adjust the knot in front to adjust the shoulder straps. The skirt is similar to the one above, but it is a straight knit - it won't fly up when spun. Still plenty of room to move, and looks great with bikini bottoms, bike shorts, or a dark bodysuit. Top: $180 Skirt: $300

Here's my new Waist Cincher. It works as well on a man as it does on a woman, and can offer body sculpting and re-shaping that's more comfortable than traditional cloth and leather waist cinchers because there is no boning or stays. If you're looking for a garment that offers shaping without the bustline support, this is your best choice. The material is stainless steel so there's nothing you have to do to keep it looking great. The two vertical rows on either side of the lacing rings are brazed closed so that they are not going to pull open when the cincher is tightlaced. The lacing shown is a brown leather lacing. The cincher comes standard with a black nylon sash cord that disappears into a little black dress, making the cincher look like it's being held up by nothing at all. Pricing is from $60 - $120. For exact pricing, contact me with your underbust measurement and the length you require.

 

	Here's the corset I'm so proud of with a little black top and the cleavage cut  tantalizingly low. Very sexy without being too bold. This piece has one big advantage over regular custom cloth or leather corsets: it doesn't have boning or stays so it doesn't have the usual pinch spots. The entire piece has a certain shape and a certain amount of give that makes it form fit and provide support while being completely comfortable. The corset is made from stainless steel so there's nothing you need to do to it to keep it looking great. If it needs to be washed, it can be hand-washed in dish soap and water, rinsed in hot clear water and hung to dry. It comes with a black nylon sash cord for lacing When worn with a little back dress the lacing disappears giving the illusion that nothing is holding the corset in place.    Pricing is very inexpensive compared to a regular custom cloth corset. Range is from $150 - $250, and I can go from an A up to a DDD bustline. Add about 50% to the price for a hip flare. Measurements? I only need 4 measurements to build a custom corset. Just measure yourself for a bra using the instructions on the Pricing page and measure from the top of your hip to the spot under your arm where you want the corset to stop.

Here's a cute little minidress, size 7 and cut oh so high! This sleeveless aluminum number looks great over a black bodysuit, or add a jacket for a way-out formal look.

	Who knew uncut rings could look so good? This is what my rings look like before I cut them. These pieces are a matched set of choker and bracelet made of 0.8mm dia. sterling silver wound on a 1/16" dia. form. The hook & loop clasps are formed from the ends of the bare wire. Click on the image to get a close-up view of the shape. Very elegant for evening wear with or without a bauble on the choker.   They have a bit of spring to them, so when worn they will always sit perfectly.  Also available in 14K yellow gold-filled and stainless steel. Bracelet: about $20 Necklace: about $45 Specify size when ordering.
	A close-up of the bracelet in 14K yellow gold-filled wire. It really doesn't pinch hair like you'd think, because the side against you skin is closed, and it's not such a tight fit that it has to open and close when you move.
	This piece has a French Twist in 1/4" dia. ring .062" dia. wire untreated aluminum. About $26. Specify length when ordering
	French Twist in heat-treated nickel-plated brass. About $26

	3-drop European 4-in-1 knit in gold-plated brass. The baubles are yellow & green plastic. About $26

	This sterling silver veil is done in a spider web pattern with 40 jet glass spacer beads adorning it. A perfect wedding present for a bride on her most special day. Price: about $400

Footflowers

A woman told me she was looking for a piece of jewelry that goes around the wrist and has a chain that extends to the middle finger across the back of the hand, only for feet. She had been searching for such a thing for some time, but had no idea what to call it and so had difficulty getting someone to understand what she was looking for. What she described for the hand is known as a handflower, so the foot version would be a footflower, right? After a few measurements, she thought that simple chain would be too plain, so she selected a medallion-style pendant from my sterling silver case. The result is here. the chains are single-knit cable chains in stainless steel, the medallion is a sterling silver Celtic knot pattern. The clasp in the back (not shown) is a standard C-clasp. If you'd like a custom footflower, I need 3 measurements: 1 - Your ankle circumference 2 - Your second toe circumference 3 - The distance from where measurement #1 and #2 were taken  Price: about $40 - $60 depending on the medallion

 

Watches

	This watch is a new watch movement where I replaced the band. The replacement band is titanium and rubber. The titanium is coloured blue to match the face, and the rubber gives the band stretch. A simple, elegant piece of chain mail that is radical, but not overstated. If you have a watch you'd like to have re-banded, I can do it. Price: about $40 including watch

Display Shirts   Decanter

	Display Shirts
	This shirt is actually 4" wide. It's a miniature of something that might have been worn in the movie Lord of the Rings. The shirt is made of 4mm heat-treated nickel-plated brass rings, with the elven runic symbol in gold-plated brass. The gunmetal blue with gold inlay looks striking when mounted on a mini desk stand. Price: about $150
	This show shirt is also designed for a desk stand. It's about 12" across, and features the Elder Futhark rune Othila. The final rune in the Viking Futhark, it indicates the end of the journey, home, lessons learned, balance and mastery. Done in a 1/2" aluminum ring with brass accents. Note that both of these shirts are knitted with the lay of the knit running up and down instead of side-side like all my other clothing. This makes these pieces hand squarely when placed on a stand.  Price: about $200
	Decanter
	Chain Mail Decanter. REAL Chain Mail, not that machine-woven chain mesh that gets passed off as chain mail. This is hand-knitted Asian 4-in-1 1/4" stainless steel rings over a clear whiskey decanter. The glass stopper is done the same way. If you desire, the fancy sash cord can be loosened and the bottle slipped out of the chain mail. The bottom is left open so that the bottle will sit properly. If the bottle breaks, just open the sash cord, wash out the pieces of glass and put it over another decanter. For cleaning just hand wash with a bottle brush and set to dry. I used #316 stainless steel so leaving it to soak in the sink isn't going to cause it to rust.  Price: about $250

Hanging Candle Holders

	Blue Conical Holder I like the shape of this one. Frosted cobalt blue conical cup designed to take tea lights, votives, or 4" pillars. The chains are heat-treated nickel-plated brass for a shiny black look. Price: $14.00 ea.
	Dangle-Drop Holder The chains are nickel-plated heat-treated brass so they're shiny black. The glass cup has a dangle-drop extending down from the base, making it more stable and adding a touch of style. Perfect for holding tea lights or votives. Price: $14.00 ea.
	Brass Holder This is the only one I have in brass. The brass-finish base is a little fancier than the stainless steel bases I have for the rest of the collection. One only. Price: $14.00

Bears

	Sir Bearus King Bearly's champion. "When speed and skill will not win the battle, use tricks and treachery." Stands 12" tall and has jointed arms and legs. Armour is 5/16" X 1/16" aluminum. Regular Price: About $120
	King Bearly The King of Beardom. He is good and kind to his people, fair and just, and always on the lookout for another plot by Prince Malicet. Sits 12" high, dressed in shining 3/8" X 1/16" stainless steel rings Regular Price: $120
	Lord Looksee In his purple titanium armour, Lord Looksee is the most vain of the Royal family. He is more skilled with a comb and mirror than a sword and shield. Sits 6" tall. Regular Price: $100
	Lord Bigly Well known throughout Beardom for his feats of strength. Not well known throughout Beardom for his feats of mind. Stands 14" tall, and is dressed in 3/8" X 1/16" aluminum. The hood is removable. Regular Price: $140
	Prince Malicet The King's  son is a nasty piece of work. He is always plotting the takeover of beardom and is trying to get the other bears to join him. Sits 11" high and is dressed in clear anodized aluminum 1/4" X 1/16" rings. Hood is removable. Regular Price: $220

Dolls

I prefer brunettes so I dressed Barbie's friend first. The rings are nickel-plated brass and there are a thousand in the dress. The weave is quite tight and doesn't move as well as it does on a real-sized body. To show off her curves, the dress is knitted right on and cannot be removed. This is a one-of-a-kind item. I will never duplicate this exact dress on this scale. Price: $49
