New From 19 Moons
November 16th, 2009 Posted 11:28 am
I said previously that I’m not a fan of gluing a few sprockets or parts to something else and calling it Steampunk. However, on some occasions where the parts fit the style and look, it works well. Here are three nice examples from 19 Moons.
Time Traveler Cuff Bracelet: WWII brass wings and watch movement on an art deco brass cuff
Butterfly Mechanique Watch Collage Necklace: 1930s Bulova watch movement with 15 ruby-inspired jewels set onto a vintage silver butterfly stamping with a oval link silver chain.
Butterfly Mechanique Brooch: An antique watch movement with 17 ruby-inspired jewels in rectangular form set onto an openwork silver-tone Butterfly with bar pin backing.

It seems anyone can get away with calling something Steampunk by gluing a few sprockets on to something that looks old. I don’t like it. Earthfire Studios over at Etsy does have a couple pieces that set off the bogus alarm, but they also have some pieces that hit the bullseye. My faves are below. I love their use of the dragonfly motif without being tacky or cutesy.
