Peruvian Butterfly Frame Information

These butterflies are raised in butterfly farms in the Amazon jungle. Growing big and beautiful, they live out the entirety of their natural lives. Once their life cycle is complete, they're collected by the butterfly farmers and placed in frames by local artisans. These frames create a sustainable ecosystem and provide fair income for the artisans and their families. Each frame is labeled by a licensed biologist with the scientific name of the butterflies. All the butterflies used in these frames are in the common butterfly family and are not endangered species. The frames look best when hung near natural light, but it is recommended to keep them out of direct sunlight and/or moist environments. Butterflies represent transformation and happiness, bring color to life, and remind us to enjoy the dance of life!
