Steampunk Necklace Antiqued gold flower watch movement gears purple crystal briolette slide chain lariat
This handmade one of a kind, Steampunk necklace was made from a vintage circa 1970 gold plated over brass popcorn slide chain.
I re-purposed this wonderful chain and added to it a beautiful flower and leaf motif antiqued gold brass bezel, which is set with a stunning antique circa 1890 ladies Swiss made pocket watch movement.
The watch movement is absolutely gorgeous, with gold gilded ornately cut wheel plates, 11 brilliant genuine ruby jewels and exposed brass gears.
I've adorned the watch with a duo of antique pocket watch gears, that I've stacked and set with a faceted amethyst purple cubic zirconia stone. Two filigree capped, amethyst purple cubic zirconia briolette drops complete the pendant.
The absolutely fun and unique part of this piece is that the watch pendant, can slide up or down the chain to the desired length (Very similar in idea to a Bolo tie). The purple drops or tassels can also be lengthened or shortened, so that they are displayed either asymmetrically (Like shown in the picture) or you can even them up for a different look. I love the fact that this necklace is so versatile, allowing you to wear it in many different styles and with all types of necklines.
The pendant measures: 1-1/4 inches in diameter.
The length of the chain is: 24-inches long.
If needed the chain can be shorten or lengthened further, just message me for details.
