Steampunk mechanical pendant heart with wings, glow in the dark and gears.

Description

Here is my signature steampunk piece - the mechanical flying heart. Although I make many of these, each one is unique with different features and vintage parts. I love working in miniature - the more complex - the better. This piece is extremely intricate with over 100 parts with some less than 2mm. I've been having some fun using Glow in the Dark pigment powders just to add another level to the design. Perfect to add the wow factor to your Victorian and/or Steampunk costume but versatile (and symbolic) enough to be worn with contemporary fashion. Components: Vintage 3D copper-coated heart Assorted vintage watch parts - gears, movement parts, levers, winders, hands, screws etc. Assorted pins Gold tone "gauge" Brass rectangular finding with EKG heartbeat monitor Optical and watch screws Stamped brass tone wings Assorted strand spacers Black rubber rings Vintage silver bushing with mesh Green Glow in the Dark pigment Silver tone posts Build time: 21 hours The pendant is 3 inches wide and 1 1/2 long. The chain is brass gold tone faceted cable link, 28 inches long with a gold tone lobster claw clasp. It is designed to be worn low the décolletage but can be altered if required.
