Automatic Ankle Accelerator -- OOAK Steampunk Anklet

Description

Professor Langstrom was certain that he'd win the invention contest this year. His Automatic Ankle Accelerators were brilliant! Simply place the pair of anklets over the shoes of any young lady, flip the switch, and watch as she suddenly dances up a storm, even if she'd never been in a ballroom before! What could possibly go wrong?

Poor Professor Langstrom. He just never thought things through as well as he should have. Little did he imagine that the gears might seize up, throwing the poor girl to the floor. Or that once the dancer was in motion, how hard it would be to flip the switch off and give her a rest. Or that the miniature steam boilers could so easily overheat and explode.

This anklet is created from all that's left of Professor Langstrom's prototype. Let's all hope that he does better next year.

I've created this anklet with a length of brass chain, nine well-coordinated brass gears, gorgeous mottled Czech glass beads, and copper Swarovski pearls. The variegated glass beads hold the colors of rust, verdigris and warm leather. Perfect steampunk hues! It would be perfect with a steampunk bellydance outfit, or drape it over a boot for an extra touch to an airship pirate ensemble.

Automatic Ankle Accelerator is fully adjustable up to a maximum length of 12". It fastens securely with an antiqued brass lobster clasp. Like all Erthe Fae Designs it is one of a kind and was created with love and Victorian pseudo-science in my smoke-free Arizona studio.
