The Amazon Rainforest is home to an array of fascinating plant and animal life. In fact, some species aren’t found anywhere else on the planet. Blue morpho butterflies are especially elusive, usually moving too quickly to be photographed. They are often only seen as blue blurs flitting across the treetops. The beauty of their iridescent wings is captured in this handcrafted silver pendant. Since butterflies have a short life span, their wings can be found in the rainforest after they live out their natural lives – no butterflies are harmed to make these Artisan Jewelry designs. Their natural beauty is complemented by sleek sterling silver settings which are placed on simple sterling chains. Designs like this Blue Morpho Butterfly Wing Pendant add a bit of vibrant color to any ensemble.

Several new pieces of butterfly wing jewelry have been added to our collection, showcasing the wings of a variety of South American butterflies. The red, black, and white designs on this Butterfly Wing Pendant feature what is known as the “88 Butterfly,” due to the figure eight designs that occur naturally on their wings. The iridescent blue comes from the Blue Morpho butterfly, which has a brilliant underside and a neutral brown on top of its wings. Blue Morphos are one of the larger types of butterflies found in the Amazon, and they are beautiful to see in nature. Of course, we respect these creatures and buy handcrafted jewelry that is made after they have expired of natural causes. With so many butterflies in the Amazon, the there is an abundance of butterfly wings that can be found naturally. We like the thought of preserving the delicate wings in sterling silver as a reminder of the beauty of Peru’s natural landscape and wildlife.
