|  We are pleased to feature Barbara Bosco’s exquisite butterfly creations. Long a symbol of transformation, perseverance and triumph, each “'naturally expired” Monarch continues to share the translucent beauty of its jeweled wings in this original design solid Sterling Pendant, sealed in glasslike epoxy resins. The 18-inch link chain adds to its unique elegance.
Barbara’s collection is lovingly made from “naturally expired” Monarch butterflies that were raised on butterfly farms. The farms help keep the ecosystem intact, and no living creature is destroyed to make these striking pieces. Barbara captures the translucent light from the tiny faceted scales of the butterfly wings and presents them as a tribute to the Monarch, one of the true miracles of Nature. This pendant is sure to make an exquisite and meaningful gift for the nature-lover close to your heart. The photograph is a sample pendant; the individual wing portion will differ with each pendant. Shipping Info: Select Ground, 2nd Day or Next Day shipping. This way your order will automatically be insured and a tracking number will be provided. |  |  | | The Monarch in legend
Most Monarch butterflies migrate to the northern state of Sinaloa, Mexico to overwinter. Then they return in the Spring to their birthplaces in the United States. The Aztecs believed that the souls of departed loved ones remained on earth in the form of butterflies. There are images carved in ancient Aztec monuments linking the spirits of the dead with the Monarch butterfly. When the Monarch butterflies return to Mexico, it is usually November 1, All Saint’s Day, when ancestors are remembered. The Mexicans in Sinaloa welcome the Monarch as they remember and celebrate their departed loved ones. |
