# Surreal Steampunk Jewelry Bjørg's Hypnotizing 2009 Collection Channels Dali By Dana K. | Published 2009-04-02 | Fashion Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/surreal-steampunk-jewellery-bjrg-2009-collection References: [designersblock.blogspot](http://designersblock.blogspot.com/2009/04/you-must-go-and-visit-this-site-bjorg.html) & [bjorgjewellery](http://www.bjorgjewellery.com/2009/) The new Bjorg Jewelry Collection video reminds me of Man Ray, Salvador Dali (the photo with the cats) and passionate fragrance commercials. It is spine-tingling, as are the unique pieces Bjørg creates. As Bjørg tells it, she was born on a dark winter night where the wild mountains meet the North Ice Ocean. She's exhibited her fashion designs throughout the world in far-flung locales like Norway, Japan and Germany. India made her switch to the jewelry she makes now, creations that look more like hypnotizing witchcraft than design. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 5.9/10 - Popularity: 72% | Activity: 97% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 30% men, 70% women - Primary generations: Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: North America ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Fashion](https://www.trendhunter.com/fashion) > [Jewelry](https://www.trendhunter.com/jewelry) ## Key Themes ### What's Driving This Trend - **Surreal Jewelry Collections:** Opportunity to create unique jewelry pieces that integrate surreal elements for an avant-garde look - **Steampunk-inspired Designs:** Incorporate vintage, mechanical elements into jewelry designs for a distinctive style that merges the old with the new - **Mixed Media Jewelry Making:** Combine unconventional materials like feathers and fabric with metal and gems for inexplicably beautiful statement pieces ### Who This Affects Most - **Fashion Industry:** Introduce surreal and unconventional jewelry designs that cater to daring fashionistas seeking bold pieces to accessorize with - **Artisanal Jewelry Making Sector:** Capitalizing on the steampunk trend by offering unique pieces that integrate mechanical elements with traditional jewelry-making techniques - **Crafting and DIY Industry:** Provide materials and tutorials for hobbyists to create mixed media jewelry pieces to feed their creativity ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Stunning Organic-Inspired Jewelry Collections](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/organicinspired-jewelry.md) - [Handcrafted Jewelry Brands](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/pretty-weird.md) - [Consciously Cool Jewelry](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/the-art-of-adornment.md) - [Haunting Fine Jewelry Capsules](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/faberge-x-beetlejuice-beetlejuice.md) - [Wearable Sculptural Jewelry](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/3dtcable-collection.md) - [Exquisite High Jewelry Campaigns](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/campaign-film.md) - [Untamed Nature-Inspired Jewelry Designs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/untamed-nature.md) - [Vintage-Inspired Jewelry](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/vintageinspired-jewelry.md) - [Fashion Jewelry Collabs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/sylvia-toledano.md)
