Handmade Steampunk Assemblage Brooch
This item is a circular, handmade steampunk-style assemblage brooch, likely measuring approximately 2 to 3 inches in diameter. The piece is constructed on a perforated base and bordered with a twisted bi-color wire rim in silver and gold-tone metal. It is composed of salvaged vintage watch parts, including two watch faces, various gears, plates, and movements. The primary watch face is ivory-colored with the brand 'Geneva Sound' and the text 'ELECTRONIC' visible, while a smaller square face shows a classic numeral layout. Several clear multifaceted rhinestones are interspersed among the metallic components to provide decorative sparkle. The components show significant patina, oxidation, and signs of age consistent with salvaged mid-20th-century watch parts, including scratches on the dials and surface grime on the movements. The assembly is a modern artisan creation using found objects, exhibiting a 'junk jewelry' or 'upcycled' aesthetic where the quality is focused on the creative arrangement rather than the functional value of the individual horological elements.
