Helena of Constantinople

Relive the glory of the Augusta Imperatrix of the Byzantine empire! This lovely riff on my Byzantine necklaces is named for the Empress Helena, mother of Emperor Constantine.
 
Silver- and gold-plated links are knit according to my custom pattern into a twenty-inch strip of glorious precious lace, a flexible collar of Japanese chainmail that drapes deliciously and evokes ancient imperial glory. I finish the Helena with a matching silver clasp for adjustability--you deserve jewelry that fits you well.
 
Like the other pieces in my bestselling Byzantine line, the Helena is a marriage of elegance and strength, an Iron Lace Design original inspired by historic Roman jewelry and Byzantine jewelry. The Helena is ready to weather all conditions with you, a regal and luscious ornament that can accompany you anywhere from a coronation to a swim in the pool, that looks equally at home with a formal black dress or a t-shirt and jeans, or even pajamas! I crafted the Byzantine line to make you an everyday empress. With jewelry like this, who needs pants?
