I really love butterflies and snap up every tin that I come across that has even the tiniest version. This vintage tin had a couple that I found hiding in a bin the other day.
The butterfly is hand cut and the edges are filed and finished smooth. Then I slightly form it to add rigidity and interest. The final piece is about 1" (24mm) wide and strung on a simple 18" (56cm) long, 1.2mm silver finish chain with a standard spring ring clasp.
All adaptive reuse pieces come to you neatly displayed on an upcycled card and sustainably wrapped ready for gift-giving.
Please contact me if you have any other questions.
