All auctions / Ethnographic / Hand-carved onyx butterfly on amethyst cluster — no...
A fine hand-carved butterfly of green onyx, mounted on a natural amethyst cluster. The wings are carved and polished piece by piece from the stone, with the vein pattern of a real butterfly wing depicted as a relief on the surface. The onyx has a soft, translucent cream-green tint with warm honey-brown bands running through the wings – a natural pattern that varies with each piece. The body and antennae are made of treated brass, making the butterfly appear to hover just above the crystal. The plinth is an untreated piece of amethyst druse from Brazil: hundreds of lilac quartz points in a natural geode wall, with white calcite and agate inclusions at the edges. The combination of the polished cutwork and the rough crystal layer makes the whole piece come alive from every angle. Compact in size and thus suitable for a desk, windowsill or bookshelf. Also a beloved gift item. Metaphysical The butterfly symbolizes transformation and new beginnings. Amethyst is considered a calming stone that supports mental clarity and inner peace – a classic combination within the crystal world.
