Not content with just one butterfly themed purse in its arsenal, Timmy Woods has released through Butterfly Bag.
While the Mariposa had bold wood-toned and black colorings, this Butterfly Bag is much more subdued. The white wood body is speckled with gold, giving it an almost antique feel. Can’t you just imagine a historian unearthing this keepsake in some ancient Greek site?
It’s difficult to avoid comparing the two bags, even though they are really different. While I initially criticized the Mariposa’s butterfly shape for being too kitschy, seeing the alternative makes me think I may have been too hasty. This butterfly is almost blob-like, unfinished and unformed. Where is the attention to detail we’ve come to expect from Timmy Woods?
It doesn’t look like Timmy Woods has put in the work here, so I’m glad we get some sort of discount on it. While the Mariposa clocked in at $338, this Butterfly is a shade cheaper at $276. If you like butterflies and Timmy Woods’ kitschy creations you may be swayed, but I still think this cross-body is too expensive for something that feels only half-baked.
