I specialize in 2 techniques: chain-mail and kumihimo.

The chain-mail consists in assembling junction rings (for my part, in stainless steel) and to make them according to the way I arrange them, these same links giving original chains once assembled.

Kumihimo is an ancestral Japanese art of the 4th century which is based on the braiding of threads or cords of different types: leather, cotton, polyester, flexible steel ... Depending on the number of threads used, their colors and their positions on braiding, we get a completely different result: round or flat, thin or wide. It is possible to associate beads with it in order to have an even more luxurious result.

You will find below photos and videos which further illustrate my know-how.
