Beside a quiet lake, where the water mirrored the sky and dragonflies stitched silver trails across the surface, grew a single chrysanthemum. Unlike the others that dotted the nearby fields in purples and whites, this one was a warm swirl of golden yellow and soft brown—like autumn sunlight held in a bloom.

The chrysanthemum stood tall at the edge of the lake, kissed by the mist of morning and serenaded by ripples lapping gently at the shore. It was here, every morning just after dawn, that a butterfly would arrive.

This butterfly was small and graceful, with wings of soft ivory dusted in pale blue. But more than its colors, it was its devotion that made it special.

The butterfly had found the chrysanthemum on a wander one golden morning, drawn by its unique hue and the way it seemed to glow from within. Since then, not a day passed without a visit.

It would circle once, twice—never in a hurry—before landing gently on the outer petal. The flower would sway, as if recognizing an old friend, and the butterfly would rest, drink, and bask in the peace of their quiet ritual.

And so, each day began with that gentle reunion—a flutter of wings, a sway of petals, and the unspoken bond between a bloom by the water and the heart it had quietly claimed.

The a vintage filagree butterfly is hovering by the brown and yellow vintage chrysanthemum. The scene is filled with forest green crystal leaves, vintage foliage, vintage wildflowers, floating rhinestones, natural blue chalcedony, blue lace agate and green garnet stones. All this beauty is rooted in a black crystal drop framed by rhinestones and pearls. The lapel pin is finished with 14kt gold-filled wires.
