Butterfly jewelry, forever teenager

Recently we have discussed about butterfly earrings as hot sellers since Mariah Carey showed her off with a pink and blue butterfly collection (earrings, dresses and extravagant accessories, with butterflies as central theme). Until that moment, butterflies in jewelry were regarded like teenagers` items, now women find butterfly jewelry actually gorgeous.

Butterfly jewelry suggests the idea of freedom, connection with the sky, playfulness and youth. A very profitable idea for European and American producers, who launched graceful collections with butterflies, using directly or indirectly the image of Mariah Carey. It isn`t in our thought to talk about ethics, we are just presenting you some suggestions, if you are decided to buy a butterfly jewel.



Like dolphin jewels, you will rarely find a static butterfly item. All jewels inspired from butterflies are dynamic, stretching their wings for flying or preparing to land on a flower.



For a limited budget, jewelers have created faux gemstones pins or pendants, but still conserving a colorful and playful design. You will fall in love with green enamel butterfly pin (about 12$), mother of pearl and marcasite butterfly pendant (about 33$), silver marcasite butterfly ring (about 14$), green amber butterfly ring (about 19$), flower with two butterflies dangle earrings (about 27$) or crystal butterfly pin (about 12$). One of these items hanging on ears or on your neck, will certainly bring you an optimistic state of mind. You will feel ready to rock at job like a teenager preparing a hot party.



For genuine gemstones you will have to pay some extra dollar, these special butterflies cost between 80- 300$. This king of butterfly jewelry is more glamorous and finely manufactured, one item worn everyday will make you feel like Mariah Carey in flesh and blood.



To convince yourself, take a look at these hot models: 14 K white gold and ruby butterfly earrings (about 825$), amber butterfly link bracelet (about 84$), Celtic knot butterfly necklace and green glass teardrop stone necklace (about 76$), 14 K gold small butterfly pin with sapphire, ruby and emerald (about 615$) or the more affordable green amber butterfly earrings (about 60$) and large garnet butterfly pendant (about 52$).



Butterflies can be created of everything, thanks to their natural resembling with real insects, which are various as colors and species. It`s more common to find enamel butterflies, emerald butterflies, butterflies made of diamonds or cubic Zirconia, amber butterflies, citrine butterflies or even platinum plated butterflies- each jeweler with his own vision of life. Manufacturing butterflies is a tough job, jewelers have to pay attention to all details, from antennas to the last edge of the wing. Some prefer to filigree butterflies (those jewels costs the less, about 20-40$), others chose the difficult way to plate on the silver or white gold body precious gemstones, which requires a lot of accuracy and precision. Obviously the costs rise even to 300$ for a single butterfly jewel.
