Butterfly Earrings, Blue Black Morpho Faux Vintage Handmade Jewelry

Item Description

If you have ever seen a beathtaking blue morpho butterfly fluttering through tropical rainforest foliage, you will never forget the beauty of it.  The PRECIOSAS MARIPOSAS handmade earrings are breathtaking, as well!  Unique jewelry for the butterfly lover, the one of a kind earrings feature artisan copper butterfly dangle and two colors of frosted Czech glass discs.  Radiatimg vintage vibes, the butterfly charms were individually created from modern copper with a permanent metal transfer and sealed for years of wearing pleasure.  The black and blue butterflies are representative of a real tropical species, the Blue Banded Morpho butterfly (Morpho achilles) basking in sunlight with wings open on faded beige flowers.  The backside of each charm is smooth, shiny copper which will gradually gain a patina over time. Because the charms are made from copper, the earrings are very lightweight to wear.
 
Perfectly highlighting the band of blue in the wings of the butterflies are two colors of Czech glass discs:  a rich Caribbean blue and a light sky blue.  Since the discs are frosted like sea glass, they glow blue goodness when the earrings are worn.  Separating each disc and capping the top and bottom of the stack are thin copper spacers in the shape of a five petaled flower.  A copper bicone bead accnets each sterling silver French hook earwire.  Carefully designed and handmade by Catherine of Shadow Dog Designs, the PRECIOSAS MARIPOSAS earrings are a special gift for the woman who loves butterflies and also loves wearing one of a kind artisan jewelry.  “Preciosas mariposas” is Spanish for “lovely butterflies.”

Butterflies are believed to be the embodiment of spiritual growth because of their magical transformation from a caterpillar to a butterfly.  Flowers represent spiritual awakening; they are symbols of generosity and love when they are given away.  Even though man made, glass carries the energies of transformation, rebirth and communication. Copper is used to allow the wearer to recognize barriers in the path of personal development.  Silver is a metal of love and healing; it is a mirror to the soul, helping us to see ourselves as others see us.
