Inspired by the steam punk milieu, Wildcat jewelry created some extraordinary pieces made of old technology. The vacuum tube pendants are made from original vacuum cleaner tubes, with an ornate silver cap and loop for attaching chain or cable. Many different styles of tubes are available, most between 20mm and about 35mm long.
The time tunnels and the electro plugs are designed specifically for stretched earlobes. Each piece is a unique, being made of old watches and used computer parts.
