Petite Butterfly & Australian Opal
Description
A petite version of the butterfly design, this necklace features a luminous Coober Pedy Australian opal set in a fine silver bezel, centered within a hand-sawn sterling silver butterfly. Each wing is delicately cut and refined by hand. Suspended from a sterling silver Figaro-style chain, adjustable from 16 to 18 inches, it’s a subtle everyday piece that still carries meaning and artistry.
Meaning
The butterfly represents metamorphosis, hope, and the freedom to grow at your own pace. Paired with the opal, a stone of imagination and emotional clarity, this necklace captures the strength found in renewal and change.

Care
Your piece is handcrafted from sterling and/or fine silver, designed to be loved and worn often.
To keep it shining:
- Store in a dry place or an airtight pouch to slow natural tarnish.
- Avoid exposure to water, lotions, perfume, and harsh chemicals.
- Polish gently with a soft jewelry cloth — avoid abrasive cleaners.
- Wear it often! The natural oils from your skin help keep silver bright.
Each piece will develop its own soft patina over time — a mark of its journey with you.
Design
Each Slow Season piece is carefully handcrafted. Natural variations in gemstones ensures that no two stones are alike (if stone is applicable in product). Minor imperfections in design are a hallmark of the handmade process and do not affect the integrity or beauty in your piece.
