A butterfly painted on the beveled glass lid of a square-shaped footed box, featuring subtle floral details and brushed brass finish; hinged lid + light yellowish-orange velour interior lining Please note: this box has a slight wobble to it due to uneven feet and an area of discoloration on one of the exterior sides Approximate dimensions: 4 ⅛ by 5 by 2 ¾ inches tall (interior 3 ⅝ by 3 ⅝ by 1 ½ inches tall) ✷ The trinket boxes sourced for these art objects have some wear and imperfections that are typical of vintage/secondhand items and add to the overall character of the piece. Any flaws that I consider potentially more bothersome are shown in greater detail. ✷ Trinkets not included :) Artist Statement: The impression my moth and butterfly paintings are meant to give is that a real creature happened to see a frame sitting "empty" and decided to land there. Part of the story they tell is in this illusion of a fleeting moment that has been frozen and can be held onto... These are another iteration of this same idea; instead of living within a frame on your wall, each creature looks as though it has landed on top of a trinket box, a tiny guardian for your tiny treasures.
