Description
*NOTE* No butterflies are harmed in the making of this jewelry. All butterflies are raised on butterfly farms and sanctuaries and allowed to live their full lifespan, which averages about 1 month, and then collected and sold so that their beauty can live on. Butterfly Farming actually helps to preserve rain forests and also assures the survival of natural butterfly habitats. Native people are encouraged to grow plants and raise insects rather than clearing land for cash crops.
The artist is a member of, and donates to the Rainforest Alliance, a nonprofit organization dedicated to preserving the Rainforest and the many species that live within it.
