Art Donovan’s Steampunk Designs

Art Donovan Clock

Mr Art Donovan is a most talented inventor who has been building lovely steampunk lamps for quite some time now, and clocks lately too!

This photograph depicts the crown of the “Thin White Duke,” a steampunk table lamp standing 50″ tall and measuring 21″ wide at its lampshade. It is entirely hand-made of solid mahogany, brass, bronze mesh and steel–and the bulbs operate independently by brass control sticks on the base!

Mr Donovan maintains a wonderful collection of some of his finest creations at a Website we definitely recommend you check out!

    Very cool. Looks like it belongs in Alathus' study. Tres Myst!

    That website is AWESOME!!! I really enjoy projects like these...the work of a real Steampunk-est!!!! It gives up Steampunk fans something to cheer about.
  • WAHOO! I must get myself over to his website right away!
  • I am very happy to see that Mr. Donovan does not seem to be one of those people making Steampunk things just to cash in on what they see as the latest trend. Based on his gallery, I'd say that he "gets" it, and seems to be making his creations out of a genuine affection for the Victorian aesthetic. I love his use of brass and wood. Hats off!
  • Stunning!

    His work looks really excellent to me, and I was a bit surprised how few folks commented when I posted it on the Steampunk Forum 2 weeks ago. Perhaps it will get more exposure now. markf.
