Moonsetby *AMechanicalMind

Artisan Crafts / Jewelry / Necklaces & Pendants

buy here: [link]

Moonset is made from the parts of very old watches (some from 19th century pocket watches) that have been disused and given or thrown away. Her parts include a beautifully engraved 1870's spring barrel, watch jewels (garnets), brass gear train gears, face gears, and balance wheels. Rather than just being glued onto a chain, her parts have been stripped from watch movements, cleaned, and hand arranged into a new lifeform. All of her pieces are soldered on (never glued nor resined) using a silver bearing lead free solder which will last indefinitely. She is not a mass produced watch movement, but a new and completely unique in the world piece of unique art, hand designed and assembled by a human being.

Moonset is 25mm wide by 12mm high and comes on a 16" sterling silver chain with links measuring 1.2mm and connected with a brass lobster clasp. Longer or shorter chains are available on request, so please note your size preference in the comments section during checkout if you need a different size.

Premium Sterling Silver Round Cable chains are also available at extra cost:
16" [link]

Gorgeous. I like the simplicity of the solid gear against the lacy intricacies of the back.
