Reviews for Shirley’s Small Gold Butterfly Necklace

Exceeded Expectations!
These days few things in life exceed expectations, however, from the time I sent my order in all the way through to her follow up after the holidays, it couldn’t have been any better. Always great to do business with good folks!

Sometimes less is more, as with “Blessing,” this smaller gold inlay butterfly necklace
Inlaid 22k gold with 24k gold wires
Artist Shirley Matteson designs and
creates handcrafted, fine silver jewelry. Here, she has created ‘Blessing’, a gorgeous fine silver swallowtail butterfly necklace inlaid with 22K gold for a breathtaking effect.
Taking inspiration from butterflies of all colors, Shirley has created a gorgeous, gold swallowtail butterfly necklace named ‘Blessing’. Black enamel edging highlights the 22K inlay and the tiny gold wires used in the Cloissoné jewlery making process. The result is a luminous gold butterfly that’s sure to amaze.
Shirley uses a technique called ‘Cloissoné,’ to create these luminous butterflies. First, she inlays 22K gold into the butterfly shape, then bends tiny wires to form the butterfly wings structural lines. Then, she fills in the shapes with a black edge and body and the remainder with transparent enamel. What emerges is a truly unique piece of wearable art that will stand out and get noticed.
Shirley’s butterfly jewelry comes with a rosewood box, storage pouch, and sterling silver chain. Be sure to let her know at checkout if you prefer a 16-inch or 18-inch chain. When you’re not showing off your fabulous necklace, keep her in her silvercloth pouch so she won’t get tarnished.
If you prefer, Shirley’s butterfly necklaces can also be made entirely in gold, instead of inlaid in silver.
