Description
Mixed Metals of, Copper, Sterling Silver, Stainless Steel. These pieces have been designed intuitively and in part, from retro futuristic inspiration. All my work is rooted in metaphysical healing properties. The set is studded with raw and polished turquoise, vintage glass and metal beads. A beautiful coupling of steampunk and the sensual femininity of the harlot.

Healing with Copper
Copper provides a harmonic connection between the physical and astral bodies and aligns the subtle bodies. It has been used successfully to amplify and to transmit thought. It is said to be a “bestower” of “good”, bringing benefit to the user. It is also reported to bring “luck” to persons, especially in the recovery of property.
Copper can conduct electrical impulses and magnify the energy transfer, from the healer or from minerals, to the subject of the healing.
Copper can combat lethargy, passivity, restlessness, excitability, and non-acceptance of oneself. It stimulates initiative, optimism, diplomacy, and independence.
Copper activates and opens the base and sacral chakras, advancing and stabilizing the energies of intuition, sexuality, desire, and vitality – directing these energies toward the pursuit of one’s path of evolution. It allows one to recognize the barriers which are in the path of one’s development.
Copper can be used to stabilize and to balance the flow of blood within the body; helping to increase circulatory functions when necessary. It can be used to cleanse wounds and to fight bacterial infection. It is also useful in the treatment of arthritis, bursitis, and rheumatism, and to stimulate the metabolic processes.
Turquoise is also a highly programmable stone, which means it can hold whatever specific healing intentions you give it. This makes working with Turquoise even more powerful because it can strengthen and amplify your intentions. Bring this master healer into your spiritual toolbox and let it support all aspects of your life.
The healing frequencies of a Turquoise crystal connect you to the energy of the Earth. Mother Nature is in a constant state of renewal, and your stone allows you to embrace this regenerative energy and channel it toward your own healing. The blue hues of this stone specifically harness the energy of water, the life-giving element that represents vitality and rejuvenation. You can channel these different energies within the Turquoise crystal meaning to support your goals related to health and wellness.
Because the Turquoise crystal healing properties are so programmable, you can program your stone with whatever goal you are working on and your stone can act as your very own personal health coach, personal trainer, nutritionist, life coach, or any other supportive guide on your health journey. The Turquoise crystal meaning reaches far beyond physical health and can even support your mental and emotional well-being, so it can support you no matter what you are working on.
The Turquoise crystal meaning works by cleansing your mind, body and spirit of any and all unwanted or negative energy. When you combine this cleansing effect with the tranquil and calm energy of the stone, the result is a highly uplifting and positive energy. This is why Turquoise makes such a strong protection crystal – it not only removes negative energy, but also replaces it with positive vibrations.
Retrofuturism (adjective retrofuturistic or retrofuture) is a movement in the creative arts showing the influence of depictions of the future produced in an earlier era. If futurism is sometimes called a “science” bent on anticipating what will come, retrofuturism is the remembering of that anticipation.[1] Characterized by a blend of old-fashioned “retro styles” with futuristic technology, retrofuturism explores the themes of tension between past and future, and between the alienating and empowering effects of technology. Primarily reflected in artistic creations and modified technologies that realize the imagined artifacts of its parallel reality, retrofuturism can be seen as “an animating perspective on the world”.

An anachronism (from the Greek ἀνά ana, ‘against’ and χρόνος khronos, ‘time’) is a chronological inconsistency in some arrangement, especially a juxtaposition of persons, events, objects, language terms and customs from different time periods. The most common type of anachronism is an object misplaced in time, but it may be a verbal expression, a technology, a philosophical idea, a musical style, a material, a plant or animal, a custom, or anything else associated with a particular period that is placed outside its proper temporal domain.
An anachronism may be either intentional or unintentional. Intentional anachronisms may be introduced into a literary or artistic work to help a contemporary audience engage more readily with a historical period. Anachronism can also be used (intentionally) for purposes of rhetoric, propaganda, comedy, or shock. Unintentional anachronisms may occur when a writer, artist, or performer is unaware of differences in technology, terminology and language, customs and attitudes, or even fashions between different historical periods and eras.
