Technical note: Product made exclusively by hand in our Ichiban workshop with an innovative technique patented by our designer Daniela Bordeanu.
It is a UV gel sculpture on a 14k gold filled wire metal skeleton. This small piece of art, is a delicate product that can only be worn over clothing, preferably on the lapel or next to the lapel, in which case the purse matching the outfit should only be a hand bag. It can also be worn in the hair, provided that it is easy to detach later. For winter events, it is recommended to transport the brooch in the original box until the event and to attach it only during the event directly to the chosen outfit. The price of this product reflects the long work of approximately 8-10 hours of work under a 5 dioptre magnifying glass.

Designer's note: This butterfly represents a lot of mixed emotions. It is delicate but at the same time strong and expressive. I wanted it to suggest our movement through life. To highlight that stage of life when our wings are wide open, we are beautiful and confident, we move, breathe, prepare to fly, but at the same time we are sensitive and fragile, exposed to many uncontrollable factors of life, which we must be able to face them, as best as we can.

I dreamed of this butterfly for a long time, but being caught up in multiple responsibilities, I didn't have enough time to explore and technically experience a possible realization of it except during the total lockdown period starting on March 16, 2020, a day when, being so worried, I didn't even have could celebrate my husband's birthday...

Now when I write these lines, I do so with some detachment because I have overcome that moment. Now other worries appeared, but then, exactly when we were all wondering if we were heading towards something or if we had reached the end of the road. Fixed in that crazy agitation to supply ourselves with the strictly necessary for a few days. Right then, I had the time, the energy, the mood, the inspiration but also the need to express my hope that we will be reborn, maybe better and wiser, I created this butterfly and its effect was felt. When I managed to assemble it in perfect harmony, I felt as if I had been saved from a life and death situation and I had an unshakable conviction that we will be fine. I am extremely grateful for everything I was able to give, in this way I received everything I needed. This is how Esperanza was born, the butterfly that I dedicate with love and gratitude to my husband, as a gift for that birthday.
