Steampunk Necklace LOLA DE VALANCE with Vintage Grandfather Clock Gears

Steampunk Necklace LOLA DE VALANCE with Vintage Grandfather Clock Gears. I've taken a photographic replication of the 1862 "Lola de Valence" by Edouard Manet and placed it in an antique pocket watch bezel. I then forever sealed it in a layer of clear resin. Then I've taken Swarovski gems and added a pair of wings and made a beautiful charm. Finally, I've wire wrapped a faceted crystal bead to finish the pendant. 3 Grandfather clock gears hanging from various lengths along the chain complete this ensemble.

Steampunk Ring Vintage Zemoga 17 Jewels Watch Movement Ring

Steampunk Vintage Zemoga 17 Jewels Watch Movement Ring. This movement is part of a lot that was purchased from a watchsmith buyout back in the 70's. 
After the buyout, it sat in my clocksmith's storage room since. Most of the movements date from the 1890's to the 1950's. This beauty comes from the Zemoga Watch co. It is attached to a filigree ring base that is also adjustable.

Since purchasing the vintage lot from my clocksmith, I have many more of these movements to work with so be sure to check out my shop for other Steampunk creations!

This is a Steampunk Leather and Gears Cuff Bracelet made with 6 vintage grandfather clock chime gears. Each gear is individually stamped with a number. I've hand stitched a decorative silver tone clasp to the cuff just to give a hint of difference. This cuff measures 7 1/2" from one side of the latch to the other.
