A very creative design, with its asymmetry.

Maille unit-weave to use for pendant.

Weaves used; Byzantine chain, Jap Hex, and Denser Byzantine Sheet. And shiny Haematite beads. Very pretty.

Another snowflake pendant

Japanese 8-in-2 with beads strung on tiger-tail; bicone beads make it easier to provide a place for the links to go over.

\There are exactly 25 rings in this pendant, including the one used as the bail--the opposite side mirrors the front. Stainless steel and bronze, all saw cut from TRL...includes 20g, 19g, 18g, and 16g (all SWG) rings in 3/16\, 1/4\, and 7/16\ IDs. The bail is a 7mm X 3mm ring.\ -- Vyking

Dragonscale in the round with a bit of gathering at the top, really looks like pinecones. That's really clever.

European 6-in-1 ring. Cool idea to make it an overlapping spiral band rather than just a straight band.

Helm Chain with gears in place of some of the rings. Very cool.

This amethyst cabochon is wrapped in both maille and wire; the outside edge of the wrap is maille, then wire is threaded through the rings to make a lovely spirograph/fractal pattern. Cool idea.

Washer maille pendant on Saturn-weave chain. The pendant is eye-catching, like a flower/spiral with the petals made of washers.

Bracelet with an interesting use of glass rings and beads. Looks to be woven on the bias, possibly E4 on the bias. The glass rings are reinforced with metal rings alongside them. (could not find original page)

I like this idea! Mixing crochet, chains, and semi-precious donut-beads.\015\012This shows earrings, but one could use this idea for a necklace too, and possibly use more complex maille weaves with this mix of rings.

Lovely combination of maille and glass rings and beads.

This is a brilliant idea! Take images and stick them to the back of the clear scales; they will show through. Which means one could do ANYTHING by way of decoration, provided one could stick and seal it.

Combining Rainbow Bands with Maille, stretched over earring hoops to make earrings.

Locked Twist with scales

Scales twisted in a circle and enclosed by a large ring.

Nifty pendant design. (original listing no longer there)

The weaves looks like Byzantine. I like how the beads are joined to make it a wavy zig-zag.
