Inspiration for the Tang Butterfly pieces comes from the 1920s and 1930s.
Fashion, decorating, hairstyles and makeup all reflected a fascination for everything dynasty-inspired. Silks, enamels and lacquer finishes created a design and fashion trend termed 'chinoiserie.'
Tang dynasty jewelry, from approx 600 to 900 CE, used granulation combined with semiprecious gemstones and colored glass stones. Birds, flowers and particularly butterflies were favorite themes and were revived in 20th century fashion jewelry.
Choice of bronze or silver metal finish.
