Description
this really looks quite stunning - and I can't seem to get a photo that makes it look as good as I'd like. The glass tubes are "time delay fuses" - thus the title.The glass is a special strong glass - called quartz glass. These would normally hold a current so they can take the heat and are less likely to break. Good thing cause i dropped them on the floor like 10 times - it was a butter finger day.
although it looks industrial it really is quite elegant. You can see more photos of this on my clockworkzero steampunk jewelry site: [link]
it's - to me a lot more cyberpunk'd then steampunk - but for those who know me - you know how I write Science fiction short stories so there ya go.

amazing piece! did you have to solder the rings on or are those caps add to the ends? i've been wanting to do something using bus fuses myself, but not quite sure how to go about adding rings to the ends.

well that would be cool.. its been so long since I've had sales - probably cause I've not been able to make new stuff.
If you do... I'd make you matching earrings.
but no worries. its just nice to have the support!
