Butterfly with Garland (PY Cane)

A butterfly with a red aventurine body and wings made of pale-pink, coral-pink, yellow, cinnamon & white millefiori canes. The insect is encircled by a double border garland, with spaced canes inside a continuous chain of complex millefiori in shades of mauve, lemon & orange over a deep-amber ground (appears black).
A small PY signature cane is set inside the garland. Judging by the tint of the glass and the deep concave base with its typical pontil mark, the piece probably dates from the late 1930s.
