We offer this bright butterfly in 2 different color palettes/designs and both will brighten up any window. The wings are made of 2 compatible colors and then decorated with greens, blues, yellows, pinks, blacks and whites. The colored glasses were hand cut and a piece of clear glass was put on top and the piece was fully fused following a strict time and temperature for strength of the final piece. The large green details on the Green over Yellow butterfly are made from Bullseye Adventurine glass, a sparkly glass that looks a bit like glitter. It also features pink and cream dot details. The butterfly with blue over green wings features black, yellow and butterscotch dots and details.
The wing span at the top of the butterfly is 10 inches and if stands about 5 inches tall. The hanging chain increases the overall height to approximately 9.5-10 inches.

The art glass pieces we create have been designed and handcrafted in our glass studio located on the southern Outer Banks of NC. Our creative process includes selecting and cutting specialized art glass and shaping to enhance our designs. Lastly, we use dedicated glass kilns to fire the glass multiple times (as needed) to produce a finished piece. We use digitally controlled kilns to follow a strict annealing and cooling schedule to ensure the final piece is as durable as it is buying enjoyable. Each design is uniquely different, so expect slight variations in size, glass color and texture. All of our fused glass pieces are food safe unless otherwise noted. We recommend not putting your piece in the microwave and hand washing as you would all of your fine china and glassware.
