This sculptural charm/pendant started out as a one of a kind piece that I hand-carved in wax and cast in gold. It features an approx. 4mm gemstone and 14k/18k gold color of your choice. The charm holder/necklace is an additional option that I'm obsessed with (you can add a few smaller sized charms if you'd like).

When I created the Butterfly portal charm, I imagined walking through a portal door in which one can leave their worries behind. Butterflies are symbols of transformation, new beginnings, personal growth, freedom; they remind us to let go of burdens and embrace a sense of liberation.

Please note: Most mobile devices may make the colors in the photos look less saturated than they are to the eye. While every effort is made to photograph the items to be an accurate representation, photography and computer monitors have limitations and differences. Colors and brightness may vary on different devices. I believe these pieces look so much prettier in person when held in the hand and admired by the eye (I've also been told this many times by Knot & Splice customers). This piece was photographed with a macro lens which captures more detail than your eyes can see! I hope you're delighted when you receive your special piece in the mail.
