Love Potion

$425.00

Historically, love potions have been concocted with lizard necks, flowers, worms and herbs, and my favorite: Spanish flies.

“Since the time of the ancient Greeks, the deadly insect known as the Spanish fly has been used in love potions. A type of blister beetle, the emerald green insect was popularly crushed with herbs and made into tonics. It could cause feelings of warmth to course through the body, but this was normally due to inflammation rather than desire.”

The words are hand sawn, then soldered to the capsule. Each component is made by hand - sawn, formed, soldered, and I added red enamel to the love-heard cap.

The capsule is 2.5, including its heart cap.

One of a kind.
