What is steampunk?
Steampunk jewelry is designed to reflect the culture and fashions of the steampunk subculture. Like other non-mainstream movements, steampunk places great importance on the value of beauty that reflects unusual or antiquated ideals. The jewelry is often bold and aggressive in appearance, but usually attempts to retain at least an echo of femininity.

History of Steampunk:
While steampunk has been an active subsection of punk society for some time, it has only been since the early 2000s that it has become more well known. This surge in popularity may be due to a growing dissatisfaction among the youth with other, more prominent underground movements, such as goth and punk. Steampunk arose out of the ashes of the goth, punk and industrial movements.
