~"Octopus Mechanicus" Steampunk Victorian Watch Clock Pill Case or Trinket Box~
This is a silver-tone metal box adorned with a silver-tone octopus motif, reminiscent of Haeckel's victorian octopuses. I have surrounded the octopus with silver-tone accent gears. The octopus and gears are on a brass filigree backing. It measures approximately 2 x 2 inches and comes gift-boxed, making it an excellent present.
The combination of the octopus and filigree makes for a striking victorian and steampunk inspired box in which you can store pills, vitamins, guitar picks, coins, buttons, and other small items. The box has a liner on the inside plus a removable tri-separator to sort your items. This separator stays locked or can be removed easily for a larger interior. The inside top of the box is also lined so the metal does not touch your items.
I find inspiration in victorian ephemera, art nouveau and art deco, and the fantastical worlds of science fiction such as those portrayed by H.G. Wells and Jules Verne.
