Natural Interior was founded by owner and artist Mestdagh Filip, a born Belgian craftsman with a passion for old crafts and mother nature. With his special love for the stunning beauty of Butterflies and nature, since 2020 Filip designed his own collection of Butterfly Artwork. A beautiful and above all unique collection of mostly Glass Domes & Frames filled with the most beautiful species of butterflies from all over the world. The collection is characterized by Filip's very own way of working. Each Butterfly Artwork piece is carefully handmade and provided with a name/designer-tag. All of the real Butterflies and insects used in his Butterfly Artworks have been raised on natural cruelty free tropical farms around the world. These educational farms provide a real source of income for native people who would otherwise have to sell trees off of their land or raise cattle which are both ecologically disastrous. Tropical insects are important members of these fragile ecosystems. If their natural habitats are allowed to disappear, then they too will vanish forever. Everything possible must be done to preserve them. Some important notes: * All insects & butterflies are non-CITES species, but a buyer is ultimately responsible for whether they may be imported in their own country, inform your customs services. * Since all works of art are extremely fragile, a lot of attention is paid to packaging and shipping. Double-sided corrugated cardboard boxes are always used, packed in the double box system and filled with biological/recuperated filling material.
