Carlex One of One
Steampunk Edition
We are living in the era of mass production and plastic, where handcraft seems to be falling into oblivion. Natural materials, such as wood, stone, and metals, are replaced with artificial ones. Hardly anyone remembers the time when craftsmen were also artists: jewellers used simple tools like etching needles or files instead of 3D printers or milling machines, and shoe makers spent weeks mastering a pair of shoes.
The Victorian era and the technical revolution that echo in the works of Jules Verne, Herbert George Wells or Mark Twain, are a great inspiration and an escape into the world of dreams.

Where Machinery Becomes Art
Original Carlex Vintage Rims
The most challenging part was the copper roof cover, crafted by copper processing experts, on which jewellers and designers engraved a gigantic relief with steampunk motifs. Thus, the key element is not discernible at the first sight.
The leitmotif of the interior is hand-ornamented criollo-hued leather that perfectly exposes the parts plated with copper or rose gold. The headliner features a huge embroidery with steampunk motifs, creating an original structure: the colour of the motif is the same as the Alcantara® on the headliner, and depending on the angle, it is subtle and impressive.
