Lady in the Moon Steampunk Necklace


Doesn't she look content lounging in the moon? Dreaming about time travel...inspired by Steampunk and Neo Victorian eras.

The Lady in the Moon necklace is hand assembled using a vintage repurposed watch dial, vintage repurposed watch gears and wheels and accented with clear CRYSTALLIZED™ - Swarovski Elements. An antiqued gold tone lady in the moon charm adds grace and mystery to this piece. This Steampunk Neo Victorian style necklace measures approximately 1 1/4" x 1" (3.2cm x 2.5cm). Included with this pendant is a black leather neck cord that measures approximately 18” (46cm) in length and adjusts to approximately 20” (51cm). Each vintage watch gear and the vintage dial has been gently cleaned, but not to the point of removing all the patina that has developed over time.

Water Lily Pendant

I just made and listed this Water Lily pendant in the shop. The pendant is made from reclaimed sterling silver and a vintage cast water lily. The water lily was once part of a pair of earrings, its mate is missing. The piece was too beautiful to toss in the scrap bin so I rescued it and gave it new life as this pendant. It is securely soldered to the handmade disc and will now be able to be enjoyed for many more years. You can read more about it by clicking here.
