Using paints of various shades and different hues of yellow, this graceful dragonfly features an appearance of flowing honey on its upper wings. The lower wings diverge from the honey and are textured in a base white color with highlights of yellow. Stylish and elegant, this piece adds sophistication to the finish of any room, contemporary or traditional. The basic frame of the dragonfly is created using tin, which is powder-coated with a black finish and makes this piece safe to use outdoors. The edges of the frame are reinforced using thicker tin wire. The front of this piece is adorned areas with a capiz shell, an oyster native to the Philippines, before being hand-painted and sealed with a water-based sealant. The primary purpose of this oyster is to provide a source of food, however, the shell is a sustainable by-product that can be used for decoration. The capiz shell subtly replicates the reflective qualities of dragonflies in nature. The entire piece is lightweight and has an eyelet in the back allowing it to be hung using a finishing nail, command strip, or push pin. Due to it being a natural material, the organic colors of capiz come through as tans and browns underneath the paint.
