Zenlinks was a high school artisan jewelry business I started in 9th grade (2009). My art teacher and mother encouraged me to take art class one step further and apply what I learned toward an artisan business.

Additional Information:
Unlike typical jewelry alloys anodized aluminum is non-allergenic, strong, and resists tarnish (silver and gold oxidizes and becomes bronze/grey over time).
Unlike typical jewelry chainmaille is not gender exclusive. It can appeal to men (who prefer heavy and durable) and women (who prefer delicate and bright). Furthermore chainmaille jewelry is customizable (patterns and colors).
