~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ "The butterfly was a powerful symbol for human imagination and poetic flights of fancy...Butterflies float within an ephemeral and unfixed dream world that...symbolizes the creative process itself." - New Orleans Museum of Art ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Who hasn't marveled at the wondrous little world of insects? This butterfly would be a lovely addition to your dollhouse or your cabinet of curiosity---or your dollhouse's cabinet of curiosity! A little world is enclosed within this 1" tall glass jar: a colorful butterfly rests on his twig above a leafy floor of scattered greens. But this tiny art holds no butterfly captive---each insect has been carefully printed in high resolution and cut from paper. The reverse of the butterfly is unprinted white paper, which will not be visible once you position it in your display. The cork lid is glued in place and nonremovable---you wouldn't want your butterfly friend to escape, after all! Each listing is for one butterfly. ***PLEASE NOTE: Each butterfly jar is a unique work of art and your butterfly may slightly vary from those in the pictures! I am happy to take color requests, based on inventory. Just ask!*** If you like this be sure to check out my miniature exotic butterfly collections, sets of loose paper butterflies, and many other miniscule natural wonders! Dimensions: 1" x .5" 1-inch scale Everything else you see pictured is available in my Etsy store, or to order! My pretty packaging makes every order the perfect gift! ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ L.
