A crystal butterfly is a small way to bring color to a desk. These handmade butterflies use two slices of dyed blue agate for wings, joined by a silver toned body.
Every agate slice has its own banding, which is why no two butterflies here match, and the blue comes from dye that works into the stone along its natural layers. Each one is shown on a stand, so it displays upright on a shelf or windowsill. Sizes run from about 2.25 to 2.825 inches long, and each weighs about 0.05 kilograms, so they work as paperweights, shelf accents or a small touch in a garden themed room. The silver toned body holds the two wings together. They are easy gifts for coworkers, bridesmaids or anyone who loves butterflies.
Every butterfly from A to E has its own labeled photo, and the one you choose is the one you receive. Lengths run from about 2.25 to 2.825 inches, each butterfly weighs about 0.05 kilograms, and every size is listed below.
About Dyed Agate
Agate is a banded, translucent form of microcrystalline quartz. Because it is porous, most vividly colored agate in the trade is dyed, and the dye soaks into the bands at different rates, which is why the color follows the stone's natural pattern. The stone underneath is the same hard, durable quartz.
Stone Meaning: Agate is traditionally associated with balance and stability.
