From the frame to the butterfly art, this piece is made with exquisite and eye catching craftsmanship. The frame is made of solid, dark brown wood with a slim brown velvet border, followed inward by another wooden beige painted portion with a metallic deep gold inner most accent. The butterfly wing artwork (incased in glass) was executed on a striking blue background on which real butterfly wings were painstaking placed in perfect positioning to create a traditional Japanese masquerade style mask. On the bottom right of the artwork a single butterfly wing has been place with the artists signature / marking on top of it. The backside is also solid wood with a metal wire for easy hanging on any wall. If you remove the backing you will see that the back of the artwork is also signed (shown in last photo of this listing). Excellent condition with only minor signs of age appropriate ware on the outer frame.
