This item sold on eBay for $154.49.

One-of-a-kind steampunk necklace assembled with new and vintage materials. I designed and created this piece using pocket watch and wrist watch parts, a faceted Czech glass bead, leather, brass chain, brass dragonfly charm, propeller, heart and key charms, and other findings. The round piece in the center measures 1-1/2 inches across.

All of my jewelry is made to the best of my ability, but please understand that the Steampunk pieces in particular are also costume pieces and works of art, made with vintage materials, and as such should not be subjected to rigorous treatment. Pulling, tugging, smashing, yanking, bending, or wearing during vigorous activity (such as at a busy job or out dancing) is not recommended. Pieces should be stored carefully when not in use.

About Monkeyshines

About the artist: I have long loved Leonardo Da Vinci, Jules Verne, Oscar Wilde, H.G. Wells, the Victorian period, la Belle Epoque, Edwardian era, art nouveau, and movies like ‘Howl’s Moving Castle,’ ‘Wild Wild West,’ ‘Return to Oz,’ ‘Stardust,’ the Harry Potter films, ‘Time Machine,’ ‘Somewhere in Time,’ and ‘Time After Time.’ For a decade, I’ve been making jewelry inspired by art nouveau and earlier eras, and designing jewelry using vintage or found materials. But I didn’t officially start making “Steampunk” jewelry until last year, when a friend of mine told me that there was a name for this sort of thing!

Jasper and turquoise pendant with sterling silver Western-style heart, on leather cord. This piece was definitely inspired by the years I spent growing up, living, and traveling in the desert region of the American Southwest — the turquoise blue skies, the bands of brown and red rock and sand in the hills, the spirit of freedom in the great wide open. This necklace is one-of-a-kind (OOAK), only one available, designed and handmade in my private studio. The item you see here is exactly the item you will receive. All of the metal bits are sterling silver. Necklace is adjustable between 17 and 18 inches, with trigger clasp. Gift boxed.

In folklore, turquoise represents the spirit of the sky. Jasper is said to bring protection, comfort, and justice to the wearer.

These ceramic vials are great diffusers — perfume oils evaporate through the cork (corks may leak, please use caution when filling or wearing). They are also great for holding small treasures and fairy dust, or remove the cork and fill with small flowers. Hang in bathrooms, from rear-view mirrors, in windows, or anywhere! Vials are about 1-1/2 to 2 inches high, including cork (images slightly enlarged to show detail). Each vial hangs from white satin cord. One of each ceramic vial is available — the items you see in the pictures are the exact items you will receive. I didn’t make these, they are left over from the days when I used to sell retail items in addition to my own jewelry, but I did add the accent beads and cords.
