The Wandering_Nomad (who wanders quite far) found the works of Mr Todd Shanafelt to have leanings in some of the pieces to Steampunk.  Above, is one of three most peculiar ceramic and found metal item teapots (2, and 3).  Some, I find wonderfully Miyazaki-style sort of Steampunk – the above teapot for example wouldn’t look out of place in Nausicaa’s home, while others look like repurposed artillery shells (from here), or even fire hydrants crossed with homemade batteries.  I’ll admit that a lot of his work doesn’t fall anywhere near Steampunk, but the teapots just about tip it for me.  Glass, brass, copper and rust coloured ceramics – I think I like them, but I’m not quite sure?
