While in existence for many years, steampunk has begun a huge upward surge in popularity. A search for steampunk on google returns 2.750.000 results, and a search for steampunk jewelry yields 247,000. While far from an avalanche of websites talking about it, it's a very respectable number of sites dealing with this beautiful form of expression. Steampunk has grown immensely in recent years, as is noted in the absolutely huge number of sales of steampunk items on Etsy, as well as even being part of the computer modding world.
The big question is... will this trend die out as quick as it surged, or will it be around for the foreseeable future? In our eyes at steampunkjewelry.blogspot.com, it will indeed last. Here's some of our reasoning:
1. Unconventional: Steampunk is not your typical trend, converging around SciFi stories, movies, fashion, trade shows, and even music.
2. Unique: You won't see too many other things around like it! In fact, we challenge any of our readers to find a much more bad ass piece of jewelry than just an average watch movement steampunk ring!
3. Already has lasted: Steampunk as a subgenre has been around since the 80's, and has always had a major cult following. This reason alone is enough to suspect continued interest in the subject.
Check back soon, at the next update we'll be showcasing some of the coolest Steampunk Jewelry we've seen yet!
