Thin elegant wings like rice paper give the Paper Kite Butterfly its namesake. A limited edition handcrafted kinetic artwork of only 250 pieces. The friendly cousin of the Monarch, this graphic butterfly has wings with striking inky dots and swooping black lines. The Paper Kite floats nonchalantly up in the sky, or close to the ground, or wherever the wind may take it.
