Description
This velvet butterfly Christmas tree decoration settles onto the branches with a soft pink sheen, its four wings edged in fine gold glitter. Clusters of gold sequins and tiny gold beads gather where the wings meet the body, catching the tree lights whenever the branches move. The body and both slender antennae are coated in gold glitter too, so the whole piece reads as pink and gold from across the room. It measures 13cm wide, 11.5cm deep and 4.5cm high, a generous size that stands out among smaller baubles.
Rather than hanging from a loop, it fixes in place with a clip under the body, so you can perch it on top of a branch exactly where you want it, as if it has just landed there. That makes it easy to fill a gap in the tree, tuck colour in close to the trunk or lift the top tier with a little shimmer. It suits a pink and gold scheme or a blush and champagne palette, and it softens a traditional red and green tree with a lighter, prettier note, bringing a touch of springtime charm to the Christmas season.
The front of each wing is soft velvet with a gentle shine, while the plainer reverse has fine wires running across it, and the clip sits along the underside of the glittered body. To keep it looking its best, dust it lightly with a soft dry cloth and avoid rubbing the glitter edges or the sequins. When the season is over, store it flat in a box so the wings and antennae keep their shape until next year. It makes a sweet Christmas gift tucked in with a card, or a pretty finishing touch clipped near the top of the tree.

Frequently Asked
How does the butterfly attach to the tree?
A clip runs along the underside of the body and grips a branch, so the butterfly sits on top of the branch rather than hanging, with no hook or ribbon needed.
How big is the butterfly decoration?
It measures 13cm wide, 11.5cm deep and 4.5cm high, which is generous enough to be noticed among baubles without overwhelming a branch.
What is it made of?
The wings are velvet with a gentle shine, edged in gold glitter, with gold sequins and small gold beads clustered near a gold glittered body and antennae.
What colour is it?
The wings are pink velvet trimmed with gold glitter, and the body, antennae, sequins and beads are all gold, giving a soft pink and gold look.
How should I look after it?
Dust it gently with a soft dry cloth, avoid rubbing the glitter edges and sequins, and store it flat in a box after Christmas so the wings keep their shape.
