Eangee Home Design Butterfly Wall Decor Silver With Rust Dashes, Capiz and Metal, Indoor / Outdoor Safe, 18x1x13 Inches

With an almost silvery shimmer, this capiz adorned butterfly features feathery lines of shell radiating from its central core. This is punctuated with strong dashed lines done in a rusty metal finish that also spread from its body. Cool, calm, and beautiful, this butterfly emanates sophistication. The basic frame of the butterfly is created using tin, which is powder-coated with a black finish and makes this piece safe to use outdoors. The edges of the frame are reinforced using thicker tin wire. The front of this piece is adorned in areas with capiz shell, an oyster native to the Philippines, before being hand-painted and sealed with a water-based sealant. The primary purpose of this oyster to provide a source of food, however, the shell is a sustainable by-product that can be used for decoration. The capiz shell subtly replicates the reflective qualities of butterflies in nature. The entire piece is lightweight and has an eyelet in the back allowing it to be hung using a finishing nail, command strip, or a push pin. Due to it being a natural material, the organic colors of capiz come through as tans and browns underneath the paint.
