This mesmerising piece reflects a surreal, dreamlike vision of a monarch butterfly poised on a winged pomegranate framed by cypress trees and ruined pillars. When shaken there is a cascade of colourful glitter. It was produced during Alessandro Michele’s tenure as Gucci creative director and reflects his sense of romantic surrealism. It’s made from glass and resin in the form of a liquid filled globe. I haven’t found much information about Gucci tales but it would seem this was produced in limited quantities perhaps for a special event.
