Frequently Asked Questions About This Website

 

1. What Do We Call The Different Designs?

Crown. In our work, a Crown is flat across the bottom and rises to a regular set of points on top. Our style of Crown is also called a Coronet.

Circlet. Our Circlets are flat on top and on bottom, with nothing protruding above or below the borders.

Diadem. While "Diadem" technically means any ornamental headpiece, our Diadems start at the point in the front and gently arch over the sides of the wearer's head.

2. What Metals Do We Use?

German Silver. Although it is silver in color, German Silver contains no true silver. It is a corrosion-resistant, malleable alloy of copper that resembles sterling silver. It is also called Nickel Silver or White Brass. We use nickel-plated beads in our German Silver work for their wear-resistance, durability, and good color match.

OK Gold. Like German Silver, OK Gold is an alloy of copper. It is similar in appearance to 14Kt gold, but contains no real gold. We use durable gold-plated beads that are a good color match to OK Gold, and allow us to offer the OK Gold at the same price as German Silver.

Copper. A soft, reddish-orange metal. Although they are not shown widely on our website, most items we make in German Silver and OK Gold can be made in Copper. Copper-plated brass beads allow us to offer any of our beaded items in Copper too. Warning: Copper tarnishes very fast compared to any of our other metals.

 

3. What About The Beads We Use In Our Work?

Gem Beads. We offer semi-precious gemstone beads in 8 millimeter and 6 millimeter size. Refer to the first column at left for available choices for Gem Beads.

Czech Beads. Czech is short for Czechoslavakian Crystal, which is a high grade of colored glass crystal, usually of reliably consistent color, size and shape. We use 8 millimeter and 6 millimeter sizes in our work.

Metal Beads. All our metal beads are 6 millimeter, which make a beautiful contrasting background for the Gem and Czech beads.

* German Silver - Nickel-plated beads.

* OK Gold - Gold-plated beads.

Patchwork Merchant Mercenaries had its humble beginnings as an idea of a few artisans and craftsmen who enjoy performing with live steel fighting. As well as a patchwork quilt tent canvas. Most had prior military experience hence the name.

 

Patchwork Merchant Mercenaries.

 

Vendertainers that brought many things to a show and are know for helping out where ever they can.

As well as being a place where the older hand made items could be found made by them and enjoyed by all.

We expanded over the years to become well known at what we do. Now we represent over 100 artisans and craftsman that are well known in their venues and some just starting out. Some of their works have been premiered in TV, stage and movies on a regular basis.

Specializing in Medieval, Goth , Stage Film, BDFSM and Practitioner.

Patchwork Merchant Mercenaries a Dept of, Ask For IT was started by artists and former military veterans, and sword fighters, representing over 100 artisans, one who made his living traveling from fair to festival vending medieval wares. The majority of his customers are re-enactors, SCAdians and the like, looking to build their kit with period clothing, feast gear, adornments, etc.

Likewise, it is typical for these history-lovers to peruse the tent (aka mobile store front) and, upon finding something that pleases the eye, ask "Is this period?"

A deceitful query!! This is not a yes or no question. One must have a damn good understanding of European history (at least) from the fall of Rome to the mid-1600's to properly answer. Taking into account, also, the culture in which the querent is dressed is vitally important. You see, though it may be well within medieval period, it would be strange to see a Viking wearing a Caftan...or is it?

After a festival's time of answering weighty questions such as these, I'd sleep like a log! Only a mad man could possibly remember the place and time for each piece of kitchen ware, weaponry, cloth, and chain within a span of 1,000 years!! Surely there must be an easier way, a place where he could post all this knowledge...

Traveling Within The World is meant to be such a place. A place for all of these artists to keep in touch and directly interact with their fellow geeks and re-enactment hobbyists, their clientele.
