We are The Velvet Zebra, two Chainmaille artisans and fantasy storytellers based in the Pacific Northwest. Our work blends historical craftsmanship with genre-bending design—each piece forged from real metal rings, inspired by Viking grit, Medieval lore, and the wild elegance of imagined realms.
What began as a fascination with ancient weaves has grown into a living gallery of heroes, guardians, and legends. Every piece is handcrafted in Anodized Aluminum using colors that will never fade or rub off. We design for those who want to wear their myth—whether stepping into cosplay, performance, or simply feeling powerful in their own skin.
Some of the character photographs are digitally modeled from our real-world creations, to give you a better idea of how you can use them in your own realm. Any time we use fur, it is genuine rabbit fur, and can be removed if you prefer.
Thank you for stepping into our world. We are honored to share it with you.
