An iridescent glass cameo catches rainbow light across its faceted edge, centered by a raised white butterfly that seems to glow against the pale background. The aurora borealis finish was a specialty of mid-century German and Czech glassmakers, prized for the way it shifts color depending on the angle. Stamped Germany on the chain's tag, this is a well-made piece with more dimension than typical costume glass. A delicate, nature-inspired pendant that catches the eye without trying too hard.
