Mechanical, Animal and Nonsensical

As promised, here are a few of my new items that I think are worth featuring in the blog. These are some of my favorite new mixed metal jewelry pieces that are particularly interesting.

Okay, we'll start with my favorite, the world's first engineered Android Robot Lotus Flower Necklace. Here's how this happened: Ever wonder what sort of bizarre and wonderful things might happen if Jules Verne and Gregor Mendel were somehow fused together in some sort of freak accident of time and space, and then developed a sudden passion for botany? Or, alternately, have you ever stayed awake at night thinking about the consequences of some sort of Plant-based Borg Collective that invaded earth back during the steam era and transformed the all plants into robotic mechanical versions of their former selves with some strange plant-like collective mind? Oh, and also the plant-borg collective has a strong sense of aesthetic beauty. Yeah, I thought you'd been wondering too. So, for the rest of the story, click here or on the picture.



Now for some ramblings about moths (this might happen a lot). Made from a vintage tarnished copper key, this pendant necklace has brass moth wings look like they could take flight. Why moth wings and not butterfly? Well, moths are like the sultry hedonistic counterparts to empty-headed butterflies, who come out at night and are inexplicably drawn to the flame that can so easily destroy them. Also, moths communicate by pheromones, in scent-based sonnets and haiku.


I know, I know, you just took one look at this next picture and you said to yourself, "Wha???? There is no way those things could be hair clips, they look waaay too cool!" Well, the bad news is, you're dead wrong. They are totally hair clips. Good news? They have moving parts and gears, and yes, they go in your hair. And as soon as possible. Made for the pulp adventurer who needs to keep her hair out of her eyes.


Whew, too much writing. Now come see everything else in my store.
