Description
Swarovski code numbers: 7639 055 000 / 7639 NR 55 / 010002
The large butterfly came in 3 different versions as the design changed throughout the life of the piece. This version is the second one and has gold antenna with a small gold nose, black eyes and the tips on the top of the antenna are clear crystal. This design of butterfly was introduced in 1982 but was later discontinued, and replaced with var 3 which still has gold antenna with clear crystal, but has a much larger nose, which resembles a mask. Because the pieces were assembled by hand, you can find variations in the positioning of the stones, and this can give the impression of long or short neck varieties of butterfly. The v2 butterfly was part of the “In a Summer Meadow” theme group.
