Why It Works
A small piece of gold that makes a shelf feel finished.
Cast zinc alloy gold ant figurine or butterfly, 2.4–3.6 in — real metal at desk scale.
01
Metal that reads as metal, not gold paint on plastic
The body is cast zinc alloy in a golden finish, so what you pick up is metal — not gold paint over hollow plastic.
02
No "it's tiny" surprise — sized for a shelf, not a garden
The ant covers 2.4 × 3.6 in (6 × 9.2 cm) and the butterfly stands 2.8 in (7 cm) tall, so it accents a book stack instead of dominating it.
03
Detail that survives a close look
Segmented body, veined wings and fine wire legs and antennae, as pictured — the kind of metal insect ornament a guest leans in to check.

FAQ
Have questions? We have answers.
Quick answers about this product, shipping and returns — everything worth knowing before it ships.
Get it nowIs this gold ant figurine real metal or painted plastic?
It is cast zinc alloy in a golden finish — metal, not plastic. The thin legs and antennae are metal too, as pictured.
How big is it really?
Small on purpose: the ant covers about 2.4 × 3.6 in (6 × 9.2 cm) and the butterfly stands about 2.8 in (7 cm) tall and wide. Think coffee-table book, not garden statue.
Do I get both the ant and the butterfly?
No — each order is one figurine. Choose A for the ant or B for the butterfly; add both to the cart and the 5% bundle discount applies automatically.
Will it stand flat, or tip over?
It stands on its own legs on any flat surface, as shown in the photos. Set it down gently and keep it back from shelf edges where it could be knocked.
Does it work as a gift?
Yes — it is a small, unexpected piece that suits a desk, study or bookshelf decor, and it arrives ready to place.
Can I use it outdoors or in a bathroom?
We recommend keeping it indoors and dry — it is designed as an indoor shelf and desk accent.
Do you offer free shipping?
Yes — we offer free shipping on all orders. Most orders are processed within 1–2 business days and delivered within 7–11 business days.
