Each spring, adult monarch butterflies head north from their winter respite in the southern forests of Mexico and California and return in the fall. This is a crazy long journey, with some monarchs flying 2,000-3,000 miles each way!
This Monarch Butterfly Luminary is handcrafted in a family workshop in the community of San Juan de Oriente, Nicaragua. Each ceramic luminary is created from local clay, turned on a kick wheel, and hand-painted. The artisan uses a sharpened bicycle spoke to carve and etch the design into the clay. Finally, it is fired in a wood-burning kiln. For use with tea light candles, fairy lights, or electric lights. Approximate size: 4" wide x 5" high. Fair Trade.
