Monarch Butterfly Box

Description

This piece is a great example of "Waste Not, Want Not"....

The butterfly had the tiniest hairline crack...now that its painted, glazed and fired I can't find it (or remember where it was).

The trinket box lost its cover. It was very sad. I told it, don't worry, I'll make you a new cover. It was skeptical.

The cover was a drip plate for a flower pot. The flower pot went off to join the circus or something... well actually it got dropped... but don't tell the drip plate, its been through enough already.

Now, through the magic of paint, glaze, an 1800 degree kiln, and bullet-proof epoxy (ok, maybe its not bullet proof...) we have a lovely Butterfly Round Trinket Box.

Hand wash gently if it gets dusty.

All of the pieces are signed by me, Sheila, and numbered, this is the order in which they were painted... their "born on" date... it is not a 1 of xxx series. Everything is a One of A Kind (OOAK) piece.
