Mariposa Cocktail Ring - Brass Butterfly and Sterling Silver - Made to Order - SEEN IN BUST MAGAZINE

Description

**You'll find this ring in the Oct./Nov. issue of "BUST" magazine on page 39!**

"Happiness is as a butterfly, which when pursued, is always beyond our grasp, but which, if you will sit down quietly,
may alight upon you." --Nathaniel Hawthorne

This lepidoptera is made from new yellow brass, created from original tooling & dies that date back to the early 1900’s. It is securely and permanently soldered to a slender band of sterling silver--slightly askew to add interest & a "natural" feel. The 3mm wide sterling band is brushed lightly, and the butterfly is oxidized and sanded to make the details really stand out.

Butterfly measures approx. 1" x 1.25" (2.54cm x 3.17cm) Please let me know your size upon checkout.

** This is a special cocktail ring, meant to be worn for special occasions, not an "every day" ring, as are many of the rings you will find in this shop. **

Since this item is made to order, please understand that each ring will vary ever so slightly.

Please check shop announcement for current turnaround time.

Thanks for looking!

*PLEASE NOTE that I only use lead free & cadmium free silver solder in my soldered pieces, and a natural non-toxic "pickle" to clean the metal after using the torch. All of my raw metals (wire, sheet, etc.) are recycled/reclaimed metal. When oxidizing, I also use liver of sulfur. No harsh chemicals.*

Thanks for looking!
