A superb weight with a pale-blue butterfly on a sapphire blue ground within a white/pink meandering garland. The body is composed of pale-blue & pale-lilac bundled rods, the head is made of pink & blue millefiori canes with 2 blue-rod antennae. Each wing contains ca. 30 pale-blue bundled-rod canes; the fore wings have 2 eye-spots (one with pink canes around pale-yellow, the second, smaller one, has yellow canes around a pink centre). The hind wings have a single eye-spot - repeating the large eye in the fore wings. A cluster of 6 pink/pale-yellow canes are set above the antennae. A Whitefriars 1980 signature/date cane is incorporated in the garland below the butterfly. 5 +1 faceting. Gold oval sticker on one of the facets. Typical Whitefriars polished base.
