Create your own chainmail jewellery in a cosy Aarhus setting.
Join us for a hands-on 2.5-hour jewellery workshop where you’ll learn the ancient craft of chainmail — and leave with a piece you’ve made yourself. Whether you’ve never touched a jump ring before or you’re simply curious about metal weaving, this workshop is made for you.
📅 Sunday 15 March, 12:30–15:00
📍 Aarhus (Institut for X)
What you’ll learn
Our facilitators Maria and Patrik — chainmail makers from Finland and Denmark — will guide you step by step through two classic chainmail patterns:
- European 4-in-1 — the foundational building block of chainmail, elegant and timeless
- Byzantine weave — a more intricate pattern with a bold, decorative look
You’ll choose your preferred weave, pick your rings and pendants, and design and finish your own piece — an earring, a bracelet, or a necklace. All tools and materials are included.
The venue
We’re hosted in a cosy studio in the Institut for X, we will bring snacks and refreshments, and feel free to bring your own snacks too to keep your energy high.
Extra time if you need it
No rush. After the guided 2.5 hours, you’re welcome to stay a little longer to finish your piece — we’ll keep the good atmosphere going.
What’s included
- All materials — rings, clasps, and pendants to personalise your piece
- All tools
- Step-by-step guidance from experienced makers
- Optional extra time to complete your work
