Small Pierced Dish with Butterfly
The Small Pierced Dish with Butterfly by Anna Weatherley is a delicate and exquisite example of hand-painted European porcelain. Each dish is individually crafted and painted in Weatherley’s renowned studio in Budapest, Hungary, where highly skilled artisans bring timeless botanical motifs to life using centuries-old techniques. Inspired by the romantic elegance of 18th-century porcelain, this piece captures the beauty of nature in miniature form.
Measuring just 2 1/4 inches in length, the dish features a refined pierced design around its edge, lending an airy, lace-like quality to the porcelain. At its center, a graceful butterfly is depicted in vivid, lifelike detail—each stroke carefully painted by hand. The entire piece is embellished with luminous 24-karat gold, adding a touch of opulence that elevates its classical beauty.
Though small in size, the dish is rich in character and artistry. It is perfect as a decorative accent, a refined jewelry catchall, or a thoughtful gift for a collector or hostess. With its limited edition status and handcrafted nature, no two pieces are exactly alike, making each dish a unique expression of elegance and craftsmanship.
Anna Weatherley’s porcelain creations have adorned the tables of presidents and royals, and this petite dish reflects the same devotion to artistry, heritage, and timeless beauty. Lightweight yet substantial, it weighs approximately 1.5 to 2 ounces, underscoring its fine, delicate nature. A piece like this is more than just functional—it is a cherished keepsake, imbued with history and grace.
