Vite (Butterfly) – Intaglio

A beautiful orange agate intaglio carved with imagery of a butterfly and French text ‘Vite’ (quickly)

Why we love it

From (arguably) ugly caterpillars into resplendent butterflies, they are thus symbolic of change and transformation

Combined with ‘Vite’ it serves as a reminder of the fleeting and transient nature of our lives
