Gilded Butterflies are wearable creations by Lisa Black. All pieces are hand made in New Zealand using real butterflies.
Inspired by the natural movement of butterflies and hinged at the body, the pieces are interactive so that they can be worn open or closed. The genuine butterfly wings are protected and sealed by hand applied resin and mounted on sustainable bamboo.
Gilded butterflies are sourced from purpose built tropical butterfly farms, resulting in an ecologically sound process that provides both income for remote communities and growth in the overall butterfly population. We refuse to use rare, endangered, or trade restricted butterflies.
