Retro Butterfly Brooch with Ruby Eyes
A radiant example of retro-era jewelry, this butterfly brooch is a lively fusion of elegance and whimsy. Crafted in 14K yellow and rose gold, the stylized wings feature flowing, sculptural contours that showcase the bold aesthetic of the period. Four cabochon rubies are set into the wings, their smooth surfaces glowing with rich pink hues, while two faceted rubies serve as the butterfly’s eyes, adding a delicate sparkle and sense of alert expression. This beautifully balanced brooch is both a vibrant accessory and a timeless collectible.
