Learn how to create one-of-kind pieces that marry romance, technology, and attitude—including a Time Travelers Necklace, Gearrings, and more.
This how-to jewelry-making book features the work of an array of invited jewelry designers influenced by the growing Steampunk trend. In Steampunk circles, jewelry-makers are often master metalsmiths who combine found objects with fine metals to create elaborate pieces. In Steampunk Style Jewelry, the projects focus on "no fire" techniques—like simple stringing, wirework, hammering, stamping, gluing, stitching, and off-loom beadwork—so that even a beginner can create pieces in the style. Each project provides a complete materials and tools list, step-by-step instructions, and clear illustrations. This book offers a broad overview of a growing design trend that is part of the literary, industrial design, fashion, and popular culture scene. Readers will learn about the art movement through the many photographic sidebars that explore the many aspects of the trend.

      The popularity of steampunk, a subgenre of science fiction, has branched out to clothing and jewelry, which incorporates watch gears, chains, and filigree to create an industrial look. Beadwork magazine founding editor Campbell's projects involve found materials, so creative substitution is required. Covering a growing trend, this is recommended, along with Christi Friesen's Steampunkery: Polymer Clay and Mixed Media Projects.
