The idea behind Steampunk movement is to rebel against the modern and connect the distant past that ran on steam with a future that is ethical, innocent, and ‘green’ like the steam era of the early 20th century and late 19th century was. If you were not satisfied with previous launches of Steampunk mice and keyboards, you can now expect to make calls the old fashioned way, in fact, the ancient way when you buy yourself this awesome and cool Steampunk phone.
This phone looks like an antique and would definitely change the look and feel of your office or home. It is a simple phone that stands by the innocence it is supposed to represent. This Steampunk phone is not expensive either, and costs just $19.99. It is rather strange how we find antique goods more attractive than something that is modern and hi-tech.
Perhaps it is a fear of the unknown and unknown is always undesirable. Steampunk products sort of make this unknown desirable by bringing what is known and innocent into this transient and unfamiliar world. Whatever the idea may be, it just is too cool to own something so old fashioned. If only cobwebs were in fashion!
