Actually the Pictish bracelet was a 2by2 chain that weighed 4 lbs in silver. :)
I actually just learned that the other day, to be honest, from another Mailler who likes history too ^_^
It's cool, I love to learn about the designs.
If you wouldn't mind sharing your references on this, I would love to read them. More knowledge never hurts ^_^
I went to look it up, just to make sure, and all I could find, again, was the WhiteCleuch Chain

You're welcome and thank you! ^_^
It's actually very similar to Full Persian it's 3 rings with 2 looped between them and 1 ring on each side as a connector to the next segment/pea :)
