A Steampunk Jewelry Butterfly

These Steampunk Necklaces are amongst the most popular items in my shop. This delicate creature is fashioned from a Vintage Watch Movement set upon the back of a Victorian Styled Butterfly and set with a range of bejeweled crystals of Soft Violet and Hot Pink.

The Watch Movement measures approximately 18mm x 15mm and comes with an antiqued silver finished Cable Chain.

If this Steampunk Jewelry piece is for you then head on over to my Etsy Shop London Particulars and if you find the piece has fluttered away (or has been sold), then please feel free to contact me and I will make one especially for you.

I can also create these Steampunk Butterflies using your favorite colors, so please feel free to send me a convo or message!

Steampunk Long Player

A Steampunk Turntable complete with a recording of those angry young men the Sex Pistols.

The turntable is a work of art with an exceptional design. The spinning disc features that heady hit from 1977 "God save the Queen", an excitable masterpiece with a fair infusion of vitriol against the personage known as the Queen.

Quite a strange combination of the Neo Victorian with the Seventies but perhaps the "Punk" from Steampunk was the inspiration. Another hit pop pick from the past which may have been more appropriate is Beethoven’s Seventh Symphony, a rousing melody which a rather bracing climax, perfect for cleaning your goggles and revolver to.
