With its delicate cutouts, the handcrafted pendant represents lightness and delicacy. Its symbolic imagery also symbolizes new beginnings and change.
The significance of the monarch butterfly
For many years, scientists have puzzled over the mysterious journey of monarch butterflies. Millions of these butterflies migrate each year from the Great Lakes in the northern United States to the highland forests of Mexico's Sierra Nevada to establish their winter quarters, traveling distances of up to 4,500 kilometers.
Lepidoptera researchers have shown that the impressive black and orange butterflies orient themselves by the position of the sun to find their long journey so unerringly each year and with each new generation. And it is also the sun that energizes them in their winter quarters. As soon as it appears, life returns to the huge swarms, while in cooler temperatures they cover the landscape like a giant veil.
Necklace pendant
The ten monarch butterflies in the pendant are connected to the frame by only tiny joints. This creates the impression that the butterflies are floating weightlessly within their frame. Each individual butterfly is set with the finest brilliant-cut diamonds, enhancing the simple elegance of the pendant with luxurious accents.
