Enameled Robot Charm Necklace: Love It or Leave It?

January 9, 2009

I separate the geek jewelry I like into two categories: Stuff I just want to look at, and stuff I would actually wear. I'm having trouble placing this Robot Charm Necklace ($15) into one of those categories.

The size of the charm makes him seem too juvenile for wear, but the modern shade of blue enamel and the black crystal heart make it seem not so far from something I'd buy for myself. It almost hits that side of kitsch that looks daring, instead of silly.

What do you think?

Something about the enamel throws me off. I wouldn't mind a robot necklace, but metal instead of enamel?

I wouldn't wear it. I prefer to wear less jewellery, but have it decent. You know? this looks cheaply made IMO

I wouldn't wear it as a necklace, but I would use it as a key chain. :)

Well, it's just too anatomically correct.

Doesn't anyone think that this is a secretive way that big corporations get free opinions of the public of what to place in stores or not? An opinion that they will later use to brainwash others into thinking what they need to feel worthy and an opinion that they will make tons of money off of.

I think it's cute. Love the color. Not sure if I can pull it off though. I have a similar robot necklace but it's a tiny gold one and I love it.

I love this. I would wear this since well... I'm in high school and I have a very odd but stylish style and this fits under the category... But I must agree with booe that this would make a good re-purposed peice as a keychain, car keys come to mind looking at it.
