AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Large Plate (d-36 cm) wall-mounted decorative, made with the inlay technique using Morph butterfly wings (noted for their brilliant blue gradient) and from other species.
Style: kitsch. Created in Brazil in the mid-20th century.
The butterfly wings are arranged in complex patterns beneath the glass, with an aluminum base.
This item is considered a vintage collectible decorative piece. Much more beautiful than in the photo.
