The butterfly's wings are comprised of natural abaca rope handwoven into a wrought iron frame. The head and body is made of abaca twine, stained, and then handwoven into the same wrought iron fame, emphasizing the contrast between the body and wings. Abaca is a fiber of a plant that is related to the banana plant. It bears no fruit, but it can continuously grow from the same roots similar to native grasses. The open weaving allows for ambient light to show through providing functional light. Also included is a plug with an inline switch for easy use.This butterfly is large and bold with its striking bright red body. But this butterfly isn't mono-colored. Instead, the artist uses natural earth tones within its wings to create contrast and warmth. This piece adds fun on its own but can have even larger impact if placed in a group with a few friends! Dimensions: 5in x 15in x 15in
