Italians love their butterflies — so much so, they named a pasta after them! But while Italy boasts the largest variety of butterflies, or farfalle, in Europe, one tiny mountain town has taken its passion to unusual heights. Dubbed “The Town of Butterflies,” the 740-person village of Bordano is known for the abundance of spring butterflies that flourish in its diverse mountain habitats. Its famed Casa delle Farfalle is the biggest butterfly house in Italy, housing thousands of these creatures inside large greenhouses that mimic rainforest ecosystems. Outside, the town’s picturesque buildings display hundreds of murals that celebrate the butterfly.
If the lady in your life has a fondness for nature’s flying flower, a visit to Bordano should be on your bucket list. But in the meantime, you don’t have to scale a mountain to bask in the beauty of the butterfly. Our Bordano Bag and Earrings are a match made in heaven, giving nature’s most ephemeral treasures a high-fashion look that’s both playful and sophisticated. Crafted from 100% calfskin leather with a cotton lining, the Italian-made Bordano Bag features a striking flower and butterfly motif on its crisp white exterior. The matching earrings depict these winged beauties in yellow gold-finished settings studded with 22 rounds of DiamondAura®, our ultimate Diamond Alternative®.
And for a limited time, you can net both the bag and earrings for the price of the bag alone! It’s never been easier to set her heart aflutter.
