      Simply fascinating and I'm wondering if that red makes it so... and the design in the red also makes it so much more lifelike !~

      So gorgeous! The black and red flow beautifully together. And, having the label is like, icing on the cake!

      For your fabulous praise I thank you

      Scott, it's a great shade of red that really showed up on a sunny morning when I took the pix

      Phil, yes I think the red makes it more realistic, similar to a monarch butterfly which is one of my favorite nature sights in summer

      DejaVu, the black & red do look super together, and the black veining on the wings is really done well. I always try to get them with labels on whenever I can, I have glass animal books but they don't cover all brands and sellers are frequently wrong (for example, Fenton animals are frequently mistaken, but many of those are in my books for cross checking :)

      kivatinitz I'm so glad you enjoyed this butterfly, its pretty wings are flapping to say thank you!

      MrsT you are so right, with sunshine red glass always looks the best and I try to wait for sunny days whenever I take pix of it, otherwise indoor lighting can make red too pinkish. Great observ!

      Glad you liked this red butterfly Faith, and most grateful to you for your kindness

      Gorgeous glass butterfly Jenni! The wings are so bright and rich looking despite the dark colour! Looks really verdant, like a rose. I would imagine this piece being so fragile, but it shows you have looked after it very well considering the lovely wings are really complete- great to see! The added veins through the red glass are also a great addition to it's realism!

      Lauren thank you so much for your wonderful praise & love for this glass butterfly, it does have a realistic look that reminds me of Spring - I am hopeful NY will be out of the winter doldrums soon and this piece certainly brightens up the place :)
