Brooch: Red Spotted Admiral Butterfly

Trovelore's line of handcrafted brooch pins are like little pieces of art. Featuring flora and fauna in brilliant colors, complex textures, and delicate forms, their designs are a homage to the endless beauty of the world. These timeless mementos make for wonderful markers in your journey of memories, a signature of your style.

Master of disguise, the Red-Spotted Admiral mimics the poisonous Pipevine Swallowtail to ward off predators. Unlike most butterflies, they rarely visit flowers, preferring to sip nutrients from tree sap or damp earth. Look for the iridescent blue "dusting" on their hindwings - a structure shimmer that vanishes and reappears depending on your viewing angle.
