Steampunk Jewelry Trunk Show

 Time for Another Trunk Show!

As the owner of Knitique, A Yarn Boutique,

I love travelling the world 

and finding unique hand-made treasures for my customers.

On my recent trip to Utah, 

I discovered the works of Carlos, 

an "edgy" artisan guy who hand-crafts the most incredible 

Steampunk jewlery.  

 Steampunk Watch Necklaces

Every piece of Carlos' Steampunk jewlery has a story. 

While talking with Carlos he would tell me the history
of the vintage parts he finds and creates his jewelry line with.   I loved that!   

Every  piece in the collection I have brought in is so unique!

Carlos hand-selects vintage watches and jewelry parts

to create his gorgeous "one-of-a-kind" pieces.  

I just love his stunning Steampunk Watch Necklaces!

Steampunk Rings & Cuff Links

Carlos also makes incredible rings and cuff links 

in the Steampunk style.  

Our Steampunk Jewelry Trunk Show is now showing. 

Hurry in for the best selection.  

We are also happy to work with you on 

special ordering unique pieces in both vintage patina 

gold tones and silver. 

Just come in the boutique or give us a call for more information 

and as always, we are happy to ship to customers out of the area.
