Let off some steam: Rhombus Maximus wireless Steampunk mouse

October 6, 2011 By Amir Iliaifar

Pull back the circus tent door and behold the Rhombus Maximus wireless Steampunk mouse, the ultimate realization of Steampunk fantasy and artistry in a fully functional modern object.

Steampunk has been steadily growing as a relevant sub-genre of science fiction since the late 80′s and early 90′s, with fans being among some of the more passionate out there. Not wanting to pass by this growing popularity, Moscow designer Alex Neretin enters with his Rhombus Maximus wireless Steampunk mouse and USB flash drive. Made entirely of copper, brass, and walnut (there was no plastic in Victorian times, people!) the Rhombus Maximus will surely leave Steampunk lovers rejoicing as yet another wonderfully designed piece of art can adorn their collections.

Damon Schmitt at 11:04pm 6th October 2011 I really liked it, until I saw the half-gear on the front. The applique on the outer parts of steampunk gear is not there for show. You may not know what that gear actually turns, or why it is important, but it should never be blatantly unimportant or superfluous, or -gasp- simply decorative.
