About The Artisan:

Eric, New York Renaissance Faire native, has been designing custom armour and chainmail for many years. He specializes in several complex maille weaves in the European, Persian and Japanese families and has experimented with great success with a number of hybrid weaves. He offers custom classes and group sessions to students and hobbyists looking to learn the lost art of maille crafting.
