Classic Butterfly Charm - Gold Stainless Steel - 17x13.5mm
A Butterfly with Nothing Added
Four wings, gently domed, in polished gold-tone stainless steel. No stones, no enamel, no engraving - just a clean raised outline tracing the edge of each wing and a soft groove down the middle where the body sits.
It is the plainest butterfly we make, and that is the point. The whole surface is mirror-polished, so it picks up light and moves with it. At 2.66g it has real weight for its size and hangs with a satisfying steadiness rather than fluttering about.

Choose Charm only to add it to a bracelet you already own. Charm + Clasp adds a small lobster clasp so it clips straight on - no pliers, no open links - and it works just as well on a bag, a zip pull, a keyring or a watch strap. Charm + Gold Chain or Charm + Silver Chain pairs it with our Gold or Silver Paperclip Chain Bracelet - fine-gauge stainless steel, adjustable from 16cm to 20cm. Bought as a set they cost 30% less than buying separately. Prefer to choose your own base? Build the whole stack at JewelBuild™.
The Greeks used one word, psyche, for both the butterfly and the soul - and carved butterflies onto tombs long before anyone wrote down why. The reason is in the creature itself: it does not grow up, it dissolves and rebuilds. Almost every culture that met it reached the same conclusion independently, which is rare for a symbol. It is worn for a person who is not who they were a year ago, and for remembering someone who is gone. A quiet gift for her after a hard year. More motif meanings at JewelMotif™
The reverse is a smooth polished panel, which makes it one of the easiest charms in the range to have engraved - a date, initials, a single word. With no stones and no enamel there is nothing to work loose, so it only needs a wipe with a soft dry cloth to bring the shine back. Full guidance at our Steel Care Card and the JewelCare™ hub.
FAQs
1. Can it be engraved? Yes - the back is a smooth polished panel with room for initials or a short date.
2. Are there any stones? None. This is the plain version, all polished metal.
3. Will the gold tone wear off? The colour is plated onto stainless steel, which does not rust or turn skin green. Keep it dry and away from perfume.
4. Will it fit my bracelet? The jump ring fits any standard link bracelet. If yours has no open link, choose Charm + Clasp.
5. Does it arrive gift-ready? Yes - every order is packed to give. See JewelGift™.
How to Style the Classic Butterfly
Plain pieces are what stop a charm bracelet looking busy. Put this between two crystal-set charms and it gives the eye somewhere to rest.
