This striking butterfly swarm wall sculpture is meticulously hand-crafted by the iconic studio Curtis Jeré. Hand-signed and dated "C. Jeré 1968" directly on the metal framework, it stems from the highly sought-after early period of production at Artisan House.

The sculpture features an airy, multi-dimensional cluster of nine butterflies caught in mid-flight. The wings feature a glossy, hand-applied enamel finish with rich, marbled striations of electric blue, vibrant green, and bright yellow. These elements contrast beautifully against torch-cut brass and welded wire antennae. A textbook example of 1960s Organic Modernism that anchors any modern or vintage art collection. I love the brilliant enamel color scheme paired with the patina raw unenameled butterflies. See less
