Get Noticed With This Steampunk Jewelry Statement Necklace
Get yourself noticed with this exceptional, one of a kind handmade, couture Steampunk Statement necklace!
Incredibly unique, the mixture of themes; Nature, Victorian, Steampunk, with a bit of Glamor, are the perfect compliments to this stunning piece of wearable art.
There are so many features and details to discover with this necklace. All of the vintage antique elements that I listed below, range in age from circa 1860 to 1940. It took much time to find each individual unique item, to configure the design and then to take it from raw materials, adding each detail and painstakingly hand creating each component into this amazing necklace. All I can tell you is that it was such a labor of love and I think that is well represented in the finished piece.
List of antiquities, jewels and treasures used in the making of this Steampunk Jewelry Statement Necklace:
Two antique gold brass clock gears both salvaged from a 1900’s grandfather clock that had been considered unrepairable.
The larger clock gear I’ve stacked with a layer of floral motif filigree in Sterling silver over brass, and an exquisite antique circa 1900’s mens Swiss made hand finished pocket watch movement, with brilliant genuine ruby jewels set in solid gold jewel settings, exposed gold gears and highly polished steel plates. The watch mechanism is adorned with a antiqued gold, highly detailed dragonfly, that I hand set with two vintage steel watch gears, Swarovski crystal faceted stones and a lovely antiqued gold flower with watch gear and Swarovski crystal stone. A highly detailed antiqued gold tulip with three genuine pearl stamen drops, complete this one component of the necklace.
The smaller gear is set with a hand engraved ladies Swiss made hand finished pocket watch movement circa 1900’s as well. I’ve added a smaller floral motif Victorian inspired dragonfly in antiqued gold, set with three vintage watch gears and Swarovski crystal faceted stones, along with a antiqued steel watch gear set with a 1.0 carat faceted cubic zirconia stone, that I prong set.
On This Steampunk Jewelry Statement Necklace the smaller gear has six lovely drops hanging from the bottom of the gear:
- Victorian inspired antiqued gold scroll motif bezel set with an antique ladies Swiss made wristwatch movement circa 1940’s, embellished with a vintage gear and Swarovski crystal stone.
- Gold Gilded antique circa 1860’s handmade Fusee pocket watch balance bridge, exquisitely hand engraved and set with the original rose-cut, GENUINE Diamond end stone. I’ve also added two Swarovski crystal faceted stones at the bottom of the bridge.
- Stunning, faceted smokey quartz celestial crystal drop capped in antiqued silver filigree.
- Antique circa 1940’s glass vial/bottle that I’ve filled with various vintage watch parts and capped in antiqued silver filigree and black crystal.
- Genuine antique Victorian skeleton key.
- Antiqued gold lacy bezel, set with a vintage circa 1890’s, porcelain pocket watch dial and adorned with a steel watch gear with Swarovski crystal faceted stone.
Making up the center of this Steampunk Jewelry Statement Necklace is:
I hand wire wrapped three faceted vintage jet black crystal beads that intermingle with two gold leaf charms and a hand hammered antiqued silver (gun-metal) over copper circle link chain.
Both strands drape beautifully, as they connect from watch to watch. The remainder of the piece, is made up of double strands of antiqued gold rope chain with hand wire wrapped, gold filigree capped vintage black crystal beads, in various sizes on one side and antique glass vials/bottles filled with vintage watch parts and capped in antiqued silver filigree and more black crystal beads on the other.
A large antiqued gold lobster clasp with chain 4-inch extension and black faceted Swarovski crystal briolette drop completes this gorgeous necklace.
The necklace measures: 24-inches long at its shortest or use the chain extension to lengthen it up to 28-inches if desired.
This is a truly, one of a kind jewelry art necklace and something that will be surely treasured for generations.
If needed the chain can be shortened or lengthened further, just convo me for details.
