About - Maille by Micah

My journey into chainmaille started 21 years ago, when I needed to lower a shower curtain. There were, of course, various different ways I could have achieved this but wanted to do something different. So after a little searching online, I discovered boxchain. Using enamelled copper wire, a pen, some wire cutters and some hobby pliers; my first chainmaille creation was made. This, evidentally, was enough to have me look further into chainmaille and I started filling in the gaps in my 5 bar gate - the dogs liked to take themselves for walks when they thought I wasn't looking... It wasn't until a friend suggested chainmaille jewelery, and sent me some pictures that I even considered jewelery as an option. And now, 21 years later, here I am following my passion.
