Aymara Designers has combined with Cufflinksman.com to create Amazonian Butterfly cufflinks made from real butterfly wings. The butterfly wings used in the cufflink making method come from the Pilpintuwasi Butterfly Garden, located in Padre Cocha Iquitos, Peru.
The butterflies live and die naturally in a secluded haven and their lasting wings are then transformed into jewelry. Every of the products are hand-crafted with the 950 Sterling Silver, rather than the standard 925.
In order to maintain the continuance of several species of Amazonian butterflies, Cufflinksman.com donates a proportion of all sales to the Garden and the Amazon Animal Orphanage. (more…)
