A cloud of butterflies caught mid rise, wings dusted in gold and frozen in iron.
Tessa is a sculpture of black iron butterflies sweeping upward along two branching stems, every wing speckled with gold so the flock glitters as the light moves. Fine wire antennae give each butterfly its poise, and the whole flight rises from a simple white timber base.
At 64cm wide and 55cm tall she brings movement to a coffee table, a console, or a mantel, the kind of piece guests walk over to without being told.
Why we love it
- ◆The movement, a flight of butterflies rising in a curve that reads alive
- ◆The gold speckle, flicked across the black wings so every angle catches light
- ◆The antennae, fine curled wires that give each butterfly its character
- ◆The quiet base, plain white timber that lets the flock do the talking

How to style it
Tessa wants room for her wings.
- Give her the centre of a coffee table with nothing tall beside her
- Let her rise at one end of a console with books at the other
- Mix her into the statuary in our sculptures collection
- Pair her with pieces from our home accents collection
Stylist's TipPlace her where afternoon light crosses the room. The gold speckle only performs when light rakes across the wings, and then she looks like the flock just took off.
Care & Keeping
Dust gently with a soft dry brush, supporting each wing as you go, and lift her by the base rather than the branches. Keep her indoors and away from little hands drawn to the sparkle.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is she made of?
The butterflies and branches are iron in a matte black finish with gold speckle, mounted on a white painted fir timber base.
Does she need assembly?
The stems fix into the base with simple fittings, so she stands in moments and comes apart the same way for safe moving.
Are the butterflies delicate?
The wings are iron so they are tougher than they look, though the fine antennae deserve gentle handling. Lift her by the base and she will keep her poise.
Where does she look best?
Anywhere the wings can be seen side on, a coffee table, a wide console, a mantel, or a hall table where she greets people mid flight.
Will mine look exactly like the photos?
Very close. The gold speckle is flicked by hand, so where it falls on each wing varies from piece to piece, which is part of the intended character.
Because Tessa is hand-finished, slight variations in patina, texture, and grain are natural and add to the unique character of each piece. Colour may also vary slightly between screens, all photography is taken in natural light.
