The Copper Kallima Brooch

The Copper Kallima Brooch is a masterful homage to the enigmatic oakleaf butterfly, Kallima, whose wings mimic the quiet poetry of fallen leaves. This exquisite piece channels the butterfly’s natural camouflage into a striking work of wearable art, blending organic elegance with refined craftsmanship.

The wings are sculpted from ocean jasper, their earthy marbled tones framed by black enamel outlines that accentuate the contours and evoke the layered textures of forest foliage. Each wing is a canvas of nature’s artistry, mirroring the intricate patterns found in the butterfly’s lower surface.

At the center, the butterfly’s body dazzles with three distinct cuts of colored diamonds—heart, cushion, and pear— arranged vertically and flanked by two sleek metallic cones that add architectural flair. Surrounding these gems, eight pentagon-shaped grey spinels shimmer with subtle brilliance, their clarity and depth enhancing the brooch’s dimensionality.

Encircling the composition, a constellation of colorful diamonds in varied hues forms a radiant frame, infusing the piece with vibrant energy and luxurious appeal. The interplay of textures—smooth jasper, luminous enamel, and faceted gemstones—creates a dynamic silhouette that evokes the delicate motion of a butterfly in flight.

The Copper Kallima Brooch is a celebration of transformation and illusion, a statement piece that captures the quiet power of nature and the elegance of fine jewelry design.
