People who consider themselves bug haters will more than likely make allowances for butterflies.
These delicate beautiful creatures are not surprisingly a popular motif for jewelry makers.
One outstanding example is the Papillons Collection by top jeweler Van Cleef and Arpels. The stunning jewelry using precious stones and metals will surely be wonderful inspirations for those who work with wire as well as bead work artisans.

What beautiful brooches! I want one (or more)!! I laughed when I the blog because I have a friend who is afraid of butterflies!!
ReplyDeleteSimply gorgeous and so beautifully depicted in precious metal and gemstones.
ReplyDeleteI think some of natures smallest creatures, such as ladybugs, butterflies, and hummingbirds, translate wonderfully into jewelry.
Seems to me I ran across a blogger who expressed her fear of butterflies, would seem strange that anyone could fear such a beautiful and fragile creature.
Stunning...delicate, yet substantial, elegant but still "fun"!!! Love them...
ReplyDeleteCheers
I'm surprised how delicate they were able to make them, really pretty!
