Fox Tail Bracelet (8 mm)

Bracelets with a Fox tail weave look tight and sinuous due to the fact that they are made using the link-to-link technique. The weaving got its name due to the fact that the lush base, tapering to the end, really resembles the tail of a fox.

According to historical findings, the first such chains appeared in the Bronze Age. Sometimes you can find references to the fact that the technique of weaving "link to link" was invented in Byzantium. But more ancient finds in Rome and Greece refute this view.

Modern jewelers use the "Fox Tail" not only in the process of creating jewelry stylized as antique. This weave looks impressive and as a minimalistic modern bracelet / chain.

The technique of weaving a chain "Fox tail" involves only manual work. So far, there are no machines that can repeat this technique according to a given program. The work itself requires a high level of skill, because the technique is one of the most difficult.
