English metalsmith Thomas L Mott became famous for his butterfly wing jewelry in the early 20th century, often augmenting the natural beauty of the Blue Morpho butterfly wing with painted landscapes or incorporating them into designs shaped like winged insects.
Thomas L. Mott (TLM) was a prominent Birmingham-based jeweller best known for popularising butterfly wing jewellery in the 1920s. His brooches often feature vibrant, iridescent Morpho butterfly wings set under domed glass, sometimes hand-painted with tropical scenes like palm trees or sailboats.
Beyond butterfly wings, the company produced a wide variety of collectible styles, including:
Reverse-Painted Glass: Miniature, often "impressionist" style paintings of English country gardens, woodland scenes, or "Crinoline Ladies".
Enamel & Porcelain: Art Deco era brooches featuring "Courtly Lovers," historical scenes, or floral motifs on porcelain plaques.
