Steampunk in progress!!!!



Steampunk jewelry in progress!!! Yes, yes, yes....I have started to make yet another style of jewelry. What is steampunk, you say? This is what wikipedia had to say:

Steampunk is a subgenre of fantasy and speculative fiction that came into prominence in the 1980s and early 1990s. The term denotes works set in an era or world where steam power is still widely used—usually the 19th century, and often set in Victorian era England. Various modern utilitarian objects have been modded by individual craftpersons into a pseudo-Victorian mechanical "steampunk" style, and a number of visual and musical artists have been described as steampunk.

Hmmmm...interesting right? Well my take on the steampunk style it to make it look like a mix on victorian and early industrial. Super cool I think!!!

The first pic is of the steampunk jewelry in progress. The second is of some of the finished projects. These items are available for your consideration and viewing pleasure in my ETSY SHOP.
