Butterfly on Lace (2017)

A medium-size weight centred by a red-aventurine bodied butterfly on white lace over a pale-yellow ground. The outstretched blue wings have lemon & black markings close to the body and similar “eye-spots” at the tips. The insect is enclosed within a garland of pale-yellow & purple Clichy-style rose canes separated by white complex millefiori canes with red hearts and yellow stars.
Signed with a JHD 2017 cane on the underside of the polished, concave base. The butterfly was made by lampworker Allan Scott.
