Butterfly brooches have a long history in fine jewelry, but this one takes a distinctly modern turn. Rather than a naturalistic rendering, the wings are rendered in abstracted openwork — flowing, sculptural shapes that feel closer to mid-century design than traditional nature jewelry. A round amethyst cabochon anchors the center, its deep purple adding a jewel-like warmth against the polished silver.
At 7.5cm tall and 11.6 grams, it commands a lapel or collar with real presence. Silver tested for sterling purity. A striking piece that sits comfortably at the intersection of art and adornment.
