Asterope Optima Butterfly Wing Earrings, Green & Blue Butterfly Earrings

These earrings are made with real repurposed butterfly wings of the species Asterope Optima.  They are found from southern Colombia through Ecuador to northern Peru and western Brazil .  Set on surgical steel ear wires and accented with green a.b. seaglass beads.

Cruelty free, naturally expired.

This specimen has been purchased from a licensed supplier in Ontario Canada.

Handcrafted by me in my London Ontario Canada studio. Though my pieces are watertight, they are not 100% waterproof so care should be taken to not allow these to get wet.

Butterflies & Insects used in my pieces have been sustainably raised and bred on insect farms globally and play an important role in Conservation programs
