About Project

Introducing the breathtaking FDM 3D Printed PETG Butterfly Chandelier, a true marvel of design and innovation. This stunning chandelier is composed of numerous 3D-printed butterflies, each crafted from a translucent light greenish-blue PETG material. The result is a mesmerizing display where light passes through the delicate butterflies, creating a captivating and ethereal effect.

The interconnected butterflies form an organic, flowing structure, adding a sense of natural beauty and elegance to any space. Each butterfly was meticulously printed and then carefully assembled into a chandelier, with an LED bulb cleverly hidden inside to illuminate the entire piece from within. The use of 3D printing technology allows for a lightweight design, making it easier to hang and potentially less prone to damage.

We truly admire this piece of artwork, even though it wasn't produced by us. The designer's genius shines through in every detail, taking full advantage of the unique properties of UV color-changing filament.
