Potion making fairy captures an intimate alchemical moment—a fairy paused mid-brew, surrounded by herbs, leaves, and the quiet hum of magic. Inspired by vintage fairy illustration and Art Nouveau sensibilities, the scene feels both ancient and timeless.
The composition is rich with deep red dried florals and red-shaped leaves and foliage, symbolizing vitality, power, and transformation. These warm tones lend the piece a ritualistic depth, echoing the heat and intention of potion-making.
A real preserved swallowtail butterfly completes the scene, bringing balance and symbolism of change and metamorphosis. Its presence bridges the natural and the magical—an emblem of transformation made visible.
The artwork is housed in a medium-sized ornate vintage Italian brass frame, its warm patina and intricate detailing enhancing the old-world, apothecary-inspired atmosphere. The frame gives the piece the presence of a discovered relic—something once hidden on a witch’s wall.
Perfect For:
Fairy and folklore art collectors
Witchy, gothic, or alchemical interiors
Dark cottagecore décor lovers
Butterfly and transformation symbolism enthusiasts
Meaningful gifts for magic-minded souls
Each fairy piece is handcrafted and entirely one of a kind—no two potions, florals, or butterflies are ever the same.
