Hi! I am Teresa Addison – owner and designer of Addison’s Jewelry & Design.
What is chainmaille?
Simply put, chainmaille is the art of weaving together a pattern using various sizes of jump rings. Most people recognize larger pieces such a full maille armor, but we tend to work on a smaller scale with weaves that are less practical for armor and more suited for decorative and elegant jewelry pieces. Though technically different, we also include scalemaille in this categorization and do offer scale work as well.
What do I do?
I offer a variety of handmade jewelry pieces made using various chainmaille weaves and techniques. My pendants and earrings focus on showcasing quality natural gemstones. My goal is to produce affordable pieces with high quality and as hypoallergenic as possible. I do my best to avoid products which are made of or contain nickel.
Where can you find me?
I am based out of Upstate South Carolina. I vend shows, fairs, and conventions throughout the year. Currently I travel mostly in the Southeastern region of the continental U.S. I am always on the lookout for new places to share our craft and show our products so if you are an event looking for vendor artisans for your show please contact us with info!
I am currently teaming up with Trash Puppy Forge. We co-vend at some shows, and are working on collab pieces.
