The steampunk flywheel necklace is a gold-coloured chain with a round pendant in the shape of a flywheel with curved, openwork blades. Women, men and children wear it to give a machinist look or retro-futuristic outfit a distinctive focal point. It is designed for a themed party where your costume revolves around gears, steam and old-fashioned machinery.
How is the flywheel attached to the chain?
The flywheel hangs from a small loop on a chunky chain in the same gold colour, so the pendant and chain look like a single piece.
- The pendant is round and has curved blades that run from a convex hub in the centre to the edge.
- There are open spaces between the blades, so your clothing remains visible through the pendant.
- The blades feature a raised pattern of curls and a row of dots that resemble rivets.
- The chain consists of oval links that are chunky enough to stand out from a distance.
- The chain is suitable for women, men, boys and girls.
The flywheel as a machine symbol
A flywheel is a heavy wheel in a steam engine or motor that stores energy and keeps the rotation steady. Therefore, like gears and pressure gauges, it symbolises the nineteenth-century world of machinery. In this retro-futuristic style, that technology is combined with Victorian clothing and a warm metallic sheen, and a pendant in the shape of a machine part makes that connection immediately clear.
How to wear the flywheel necklace at a party
Let the pendant hang loose over a dark waistcoat or a high-necked blouse, so that the gold colour stands out well and the openwork blades are clearly visible. If you are wearing a jacket or cape, keep it open so that the flywheel does not disappear. For a machinist look, a fabric top hat, steampunk goggles on the head and brown gloves go well with it, as they repeat the same warm tones.
Bring the flywheel necklace into your home and give your outfit for the next themed party a shiny focal point.
