Handwoven Byzantine Chainmail Choker, Stainless Steel Hematite Faux Pearl Necklace

This dramatic chainmail choker is handwoven in a classic Byzantine pattern and draped with hematite and glass beads for a dark, elegant shimmer.

Designed for everyday wear, it’s built in stainless steel so it resists tarnish and holds up to real life, not just photos.

Features:

*15 inch choker length, designed to sit high on the neck for a true collar look
*Stainless steel rings and findings for durability and a cool-toned, non-tarnish finish
*Hematite focal beads paired with glass beads and faux pearls for subtle contrast and shine
*Byzantine chainmail weave with layered chains that drape in gothic, chandelier-style swags
*Signature double lobster claw clasp at the back for a secure closure and easy on/offLightweight but sturdy construction, comfortable enough for all-day or all-night wear

Metaphysical notes:

Hematite is traditionally associated with grounding, protection, and energetic boundaries, making this choker a powerful companion for empaths, healers, and anyone moving through intense spaces.

The stainless steel and chainmail structure add a “modern armor” vibe, perfect for those who like their jewelry to feel both pretty and protective.

Fit and sizing:

This listing is for a 15 inch choker, which typically sits closely around the base of the neck.

For a looser fit or a different size, message me before ordering; I’m happy to discuss a custom length if materials are available.

Materials & care:

Materials:
Stainless steel rings and findings, hematite beads, glass beads, faux pearls.

To clean, gently wipe with a soft cloth; avoid harsh chemicals or ultrasonic cleaners on the beads.

Stainless steel components are water-resistant and non-tarnish, but removing before swimming or showering will extend the life of the piece.

Handmade details:

Each choker is woven ring by ring in my studio, so small variations are part of the character of your unique piece.

The double lobster claw clasp is my signature finish, offering extra security and a distinctive back-of-neck detail.

Packaging & gifting:

Your choker will arrive carefully packaged and ready for gifting to yourself or someone who loves gothic, witchy, or dark academia style.

If this is a gift, you can leave a note at checkout and I’ll include a handwritten message.
