Petite Lace Butterfly 5"x5"

Lace Butterfly – Petite Collection

A delicate fusion of heritage craft and contemporary luxury. This Petite Lace Butterfly celebrates the intricate beauty of traditional lace-making techniques, reimagined through Stephen Wilson's signature textile art approach.

Each piece begins with an up-cycled luxury box or shopping bag, carefully trimmed and collaged to create a richly textured foundation. The butterfly itself is meticulously crafted using traditional lace techniques—hand-worked thread patterns that echo centuries-old methods of bobbin lace and needlework. Every wing, every delicate detail is built up with precision and patience, creating an ethereal, dimensional form that seems to hover above the surface.

The contrast between the structured luxury packaging and the gossamer-fine lacework creates a striking visual tension—modern meets timeless, bold meets delicate. Framed and mounted in acrylic, each piece is signed and numbered on the back, with slight variations in lace patterns and materials making every butterfly truly one-of-a-kind.

Part of the Petite Collection – where traditional craftsmanship meets luxury materials.
