The gears stopped turning a long time ago. The mushrooms did not notice, or did not care, which amounts to the same thing. They moved in anyway.
This pendant is a large gold-tone teardrop bezel holding a hand-painted black world: brushstrokes visible through the resin, gold flake scattered across the dark the way sparks scatter, and two brass gears embedded in the surface, one large toothed ring, one smaller with a crosshair bolt at the center. Mushrooms grow up through and around them, unhurried, the way things grow when they have already won. The chain is a fine gold-tone cable with a lobster clasp and extender, so it finds its length at 24", adjustable. As with all pieces, this one is one of a kind. Once it's gone, it's gone.
From the Vintage Glen series, where the old machines are just the beginning of something more interesting.
