This stunning Victorian butterfly pendant has lots of color and is the perfect warm weather piece. It features a blue sapphire in the center of the butterfly’s body, along different color variations of sapphire and rose cut diamonds decorating the head and wings. The butterfly is made of 10 karat yellow gold and topped with sterling silver, which was a common practice of the time. We love to wear this piece with a favorite chain as a statement piece, or even stacked with other chains and charms. This piece is the perfect piece to dress up or down, as it will never go out of style.

Due to the delicate setting of this pendant, we are unable to test the colored stones precisely. Based on our gemological education, we presume the pink, red, and orange stones to be color variations of sapphire. An estimated 0.19 total carat weight of sapphire accents.
