Our  Imitation Rhodium Chain #4: Round Bar Link Scalloped Chain is available once again.

If you recall, this is a brass chain with soldered oval jump rings between the 1×8 curved links. This chain is plated with an Imitation Rhodium finish, which is lighter than gunmetal or nickel, but darker than silver plate.

Did we mention we lowered the price per foot?

We've heard rumors of people adapting the Treasure Bracelet as shown in the February, 2009 Bead and Button magazine into watch bands, which no doubt look fabulous.

Have you thought about doing a Treasure Bracelet or Treasure Bracelet watchband using gunmetal chain, imitation rhodium chain, antique brass chain or antique copper chain?

Take a look at all of the 1×8 Scalloped Chains here

A favorite chain of ours – Flat Oval Sterling Cable Chain – is available again!

This chain has been a favorite of ous for 7 or 8 years now.  Its great for necklaces and bracelets using wire wrapped dangles or charms.  We also use it as chain extenders when we pair it with a nice sterling silver trigger clasp.

Take a look at this new Gold-Plated Bar Link Chain.  Hamilton Gold plate over brass, with soldered rings between the bars. 

Its new enough that we haven't had time to make any new jewelry with it yet.
