Butterfly Earrings

$72.00 NZD

These elegant earrings are handmade in New Zealand from test-tube glass and filled with ethically-sourced butterfly wings.


Very few of the wings used are perfect, but this is part of their appeal. You can see that each butterfly has lived, flown, fed and reproduced by the damage to their wings. The butterflies in these earrings have been nurtured and cared for while alive, then preserved forever in my jewellery. 

The glass vials are about 65mm long and hang on sterling silver findings, and each pair of earrings is unique.

 

Available online and in-store at City Gallery Wellington. Explore our collection of jewellery, taonga, souvenirs, science-themed gifts and more from across Aotearoa New Zealand.
