MOTHS AND BUTTERFLIES-JEWELRY THROUGH TIME

For centuries artisans have designed jewelry of moths and butterflies. From the designers at Tiffany’s to the Royal Courts of Europe these insects have been a favorite adornment for many. Below are just a few of the many brooches I offer through my Etsy Store and also every Sunday at the Melrose Trading Post. I invite you to visit and if you have any questions please email me @ karasvintagejewelry@gmail.com

BUTTERFLY JEWELRY

The delicate beauty of these vintage butterfly pins is timeless. Imagine, for a moment, the work that went into each one. The artist that carefully inlaid the Abalone shell onto the wings of his butterfly. Another artist, from another part of the world, at another time, interpreted his beautiful insect with a delicate, artistic, wired creation. Each of these butterflies is different from the others, each one has its own unique colorful style, each butterfly a beautiful work of art, much like all of us.
