Description

This  lovely stained glass butterfly will stand on their points and can be used as a shade for a candle or night light with the antennae either wrapped around the candle, or pushing out from the shelf wall. They can be attached by the legs to a trellis or a pot, or a twig in a tree or bush, and won’t rust due to the silver solder coating. This beauty can also be hung like a mobile from a fan so little children can enjoy it as well as adults, or hung in a window to show off the beautiful colour in the wings.

Dimensions and Construction of Stained Glass Butterfly

I crafted this gorgeous butterfly symbol of transformation using the copper foil method, and lead free silver solder. I used pretty iridescent rare pink (discontinued because it contains gold) and purple stained glass for the wings and silver coated copper wire to add detail such as the wire work on the wings, antennae and little legs. The butterfly measures about 5″ x 5″, and the antennae are another 3″ long. I love my butterflies, one of the few critters I can get really fanciful with, and make of whatever whimsical colour I please!

Customize your Stained Glass Butterfly

If you have a special butterfly in mind just send me a note when you order so I can set up a custom order for you. I have made turquoise, pink, as well as the red, blue and pink or purple iridescent ones listed under Butterfly Art.  There are 3 sizes, and many colour or textured glass options available. I make many of my butterflies out of special glass that is either discontinued, or unique to that particular butterfly.

Shipping Notes

I make all of my pieces individually when you order so there will be slight variations from the photos.  Handmade pieces take lots of time and loving attention to detail which may  delay shipping. If the piece is urgently required, please make a note on your order form so I may contact you to get an exact due date, or to upgrade shipping or processing times. Most of my pieces take from 3 days to 3 weeks to produce depending on the number of orders I already have in process, but I make every effort to get them out in time if it is a gift or of special urgency.
