These butterfly earrings are made using the ancient Japanese art of origami. Each one is folded from a simple square sheet of paper. Wing patterns are then painted by hand. Each butterfly is coated with a clear varnish to be durable and lasting. The earrings hang on silver-toned findings with nickel-free hooks.

Total length, including hook = 5.25cm
Butterfly width = 3cm

The very nature of paper makes origami a beautiful but delicate art. The varnish improves durability, but the wearer should avoid heavy water exposure and forcible bending to avoid damage.

Because each butterfly is folded and painted by hand, there will be minor variations from the images above and the pair of earrings you receive.

Thanks for looking
