Handmade Steampunk Ring - Silver Clockwork - Waltham Mechanical Watch - SOLDERED for QUALITY - Industrial Ring on Silver Our steampunk rings are made with vintage mechanical watch movements silver soldered to sturdy adjustable ring base. Great for ladies and gents! HISTORY OF THE DESIGN: The Victorian era was a bridge between old traditions and new technologies. At the 1851 Great Exhibition in London, Queen Victoria and Prince Albert received their first mechanical keyless wind watches, making pocket watches and watch fobs popular for both men and women until the mid 20th century. While pocket watches had been worn for more than a century, wrist watches were introduced around 1900, called "wristlets" were introduced, in part because of the development of a more affordable jewel bearings production process, which made smaller, more accurate watches possible. Assumed to be a passing fad, wrist watches caught on and were most popular in the 1920s and 1930s, which is why most of the watches I work with are Art Deco from this period. An emblem of a past era of craftsmanship, these mechanical watches have real or synthetic jewel bearings, originally made with ruby, garnet, diamond, and sapphire. Many watches have the name of the watch maker, intricate tooling or design work, seen only when the watch was repaired, cleaned, and maintained. Wear History. MEASUREMENTS & MATERIALS: * This item is soldered, not glued. * This is a sturdy adjustable silver plated ring that fits just below a size 6 to above a 9. * The watch movement measures approximately .75" x .75" * All items come in a gift box. Compass Rose Design revives historic heirlooms into wearable art. Everything in our shop is handmade in our studio just north of San Francisco, California.
