The Inspiration: This colourway captures the Green Hairstreak butterfly — that vivid flash of iridescent green you might glimpse darting along hedgerows and hillsides. The name Sprite Wing is drawn from folklore, honouring the many poetic names different cultures and languages have given to butterflies throughout history. The Scotland in the title nods to the rich Scots tradition of butterfly folklore and naming.
The Palette: A variegated blend of light green, teal green, and dark green, speckled with deeper flecks of dark green — like light catching the wings of a Green Hairstreak in motion.
