Steampunk Necklace - Ammonite Pendant

This steampunk fashion inspired ammonite fossil pendant was wire wrapped with pure antiqued copper wire. Copper wire wraps give the appears of gear and cogs inspired by 19th-century industrial steam-powered machinery.


Pure copper wire flows beautifully around an ammonite fossil and small moonstone cabochon. 

The copper was then antiqued to give a rustic look.

This unique, one of a kind ammonite fossil pendant was wire wrapped with pure antiqued copper wire. Ammonites are one of the most widely known fossil, possessing a ribbed spiral-form shell. These creatures lived in the seas between 240 - 65 million years ago, when they became extinct along with the dinosaurs.

Copper Tree of Life Orgonite Pendant - Glow - Handmade Wire Wrap

This tree of life necklace pendant was hand wrapped in pure antiqued copper wire. The focal


The focal in the center is an orgonite cabochon that I made as well. Inside the orgonite cabochon I put mixed metals and beach sand from the gulf coast of Florida.

Turn off the lights and this orgonite pendant glows a bright green.



Over 6 hours of craftsmanship, polishing, and buffing went into the creation of this handmade necklace pendant.

So the pendant can be worn right away, I've included an adjustable slip knot hemp cord until you replace the cord with something better.

Dimensions: 48 x 30 x 9 mm
Bale inside diameter: 4 mm

What is Orgonite?

To explain what orgonite is, you first need to know what orgone is. Orgone energy is a hypothetical universal life force originally proposed in the 1930s by Wilhelm Reich. This vital energy is found everywhere in nature and is also known as Chi, Prana, and Aether. The energy can be neutral (OR = orgone), positive (POR = positive) or negative (DOR = deadly). When positive, it enables living organisms to exist in a healthy state. DOR energy is primarily human made, by technology, machines, microwave transmitters, chemical pollution, physical destruction of the landscape, human emotions, etc.

Orgonite is a mixture of catalyzed fiberglass resin with metal shavings, minerals, and crystals. It is said to attract aetheric energy similarly to Reich's accumulators. Orgonite basically is a substance which functions as a self-driven, continuously-operating, highly efficient energy transmutation device, drawing in negative life energy and transmuting it into positive energy.

Wire Wrapped Shark Tooth Pendant With Crystals

Wire Wrapped Shark Tooth Copper Pendant with Crystals - ©2014 Tim Whetsel - TDWJewelry
Made this steampunk looking copper pendant with a touch of brass. The shark tooth cabochon is handmade by me. Crystals and gems on the side. From top to bottom, peridot, amethyst, and quartz crystal.

Click here to purchase this wire wrapped shark tooth fossil pendant and see my other handmade jewelry.
Peridot is the official birthstone for the month of August and it is also the stone for the Zodiac sign of Libra and Astrological Signs of Leo, Virgo and Scorpio, and Sagittarius. This gem stone vibrates to the numbers 5, 6, and 7. Peridot fosters emotional balance, and helps us heal from past emotional wounds. It clears the path way to the heart and heals damaged egos. Peridot helps you move past the hurt, and understand your relationships. It adds intelligence to your romantic situations, giving you some common sense in affairs of the heart, and protecting you from unnecessary heartache. This Visionary stone brings understanding of destiny and purpose, releases negative vibrations, and promotes clarity and well being. Peridot is also a Money Stone and is said that you can wear it to draw money and opportunity your way. 

Amethyst is identified with the crown chakra and vibrates to the number 3. Astrological sings are Pisces, Virgo, Aquarius, and Capricorn. Amethyst is a member of the crystal quartz or silica group, which are the most common minerals on our planet. Amethyst is the stone of the mind that helps bring calmness and clarity when there is anxiety and confusion. You can wear amethyst if you'd like to get in touch with your intuition, your feelings, and/or your values. This stone helps you learn of all things spiritual, mystic and psychic. Amethyst is said to aid in sobriety; alcohol, food, sex, drugs, and other addictions. Helps relieve stress, addictions, and offers protection because it repels more than it attracts.


Quartz crystal is one of earth's most common minerals and the most powerful, versatile multi-purpose healing stone. It is said that quartz crystals were used in Atlantis and Lemuria for rejuvenation. Edgar Cayce spoke about an energy stone in Atlantis. Mr. Cayce's description of the energy stone fits quartz crystal. The Bible mentions many gemstones, including quartz. There is much disagreement on the stones used in the Breastplate of Aaron (Ex. 28). In some translations of the Bible the sixth stone, which is the third stone of the second row is the diamond. Some scholars believe the sixth stone is rock crystal or quartz crystal. The diamond was not used until about 800 B.C.
