I have finally managed to finish a couple of byzantine chains!!  I'm pleased with the way they turned out.  One is a bracelet which I made for my sister.  She suffers from arthritis so we used copped and the black beads are magnetic.  A few lampwork beads thrown in for some pizzazz!  She says it's helping!!!  The other is an anklet.  I hope to get more done with different variations!  Enjoy.
