Elaine Unzicker’s background included both sculpture and jewelry before she became interested in medieval chain mail, the mesh she uses to form her earrings, necklaces, and bracelets. The fluid movement of the stainless steel mesh allows her to create jewelry that caresses and conforms to the body, and becomes, in a sense, body sculpture.  Pearls or colored gemstone beads are added to create interest and a fashionable look that enhances the simplicity of the mesh.
