Steam Butterfly


“First you jump off the cliff and you build your wings on the way down,” said Ray Bradbury. In honor of this adage, our Steam Butterfly is a place of invention and transformation. The butterfly wings in this intricate pet ID tag are built with shapes borrowed from antique watch parts, because transformation for mere mortals is inseparably linked to the passage of time. Few events will change us as much in our lives than the days we share with our animal companions. One gentle tap of a paw and they urge us out of the chrysalis. They lead us out into the garden, teach us how to spread our wings, sit on a pineapple slice, and fly.
