Sakuragai Butterfly Brooch: Butterfly Dream

Butterfly Dream The rosy shell, *sakuragai*, found on the beach in childhood, always brought such joy. We've crafted these precious, paired shells into a brooch, evoking the image of a phantom butterfly in graceful flight. The shells have small holes, made by their natural predators, the moon snails, which we've carefully filled with metal. As the shells are quite delicate, we've coated both sides with a high-durability resin for added strength. It's as enchanting as a dream. Why not set aside your necklace sometimes and adorn a relaxed stole or knitwear with this brooch to embrace the season? It looks equally lovely attached to a bag or hat. Sakuragai Shell, Resin Alloy Pin Brooch Approximately 2cm (±4mm) *Will be shipped in a presentation box. Packaging materials may vary without prior notice depending on the season. Regardless of the material, our studio staff will carefully package your item. *Can also be made into a necklace (chain sold separately). Please inquire beforehand. ■About Sakuragai Meaning: "Shell that brings happiness," "Shell that connects destiny," "Petals on the beach" Sakuragai are small, pink shells found along the coasts from southwestern Hokkaido to Kyushu, as well as along the coasts of the Korean Peninsula and China.
