A Cafe for Colorful Characters
The garden is a place for brilliant colors: flowers, birds, and this extraordinary butterfly feeder, which will help attract those fluttering beauties to your yard. But what do butterflies eat? Some love flower nectar, while others prefer to eat sugar from a rotting, fermenting fruit, or stale beer. To make an irresistible mix, fill the inner cup with sugar nectar, using the included sea sponge as a wick, or use a mixture of bananas, beer and molasses. Yearning for birds? This multifunction feeder can also be used as a bird buffet, with the outer tray holding seeds and the inner cup offering fruit for our sweet-seeking feathered friends.
Created by Gerald Warren at his ceramics studio in Kingston, Ontario, the stoneware tray and its brass bead chains are weatherproof and dishwasher safe, decorated with a fiery bloom of lead-free glazes.
Made in Canada.
Care instructions: dishwasher safe, tie chains together before placing in dishwasher.
- Item ID: 21742
- Materials: brass, stoneware, repurposed glass, natural sea sponge
- Feeder: 3" H x 7.5" Dia.; Chain: 14" L
- Care instructions: dishwasher safe, tie chains together before placing in dishwasher.
Jo-Anne & Gerald Warren
With a name like Amaranth, a mythical flower that is said to never fade, Jo-Anne & Gerald Warren's stoneware has a lot to live up to. Fortunately, it does, both in terms of beauty and durability. Using a firing process that can exceed 2000 degrees, Amaranth products are built to last, withstanding all elements and seasons, yet maintaining their signature charm. The Warren's make sure all their handmade stoneware is made in an environmentally friendly fashion and hope you take as much pleasure in their art as they do in exploring new ways to innovate current standards.

How would this technicolor bird buffet look in your yard or garden?

Sadly, it looks like blood splatter on it. Can't get past that.

"Hey,what a great concept" (isn't that a line from a song?)....I love the idea of attracting butterflies with the contents suggested but I think the design/colour/pattern of the ceramics would clash with the beauty of the butterflies. Perhaps a more natural/neutral/texture for the feeder instead of spatter in these colours?

Concept good, color needs help! I agree with more natural colors. We want the butterflies to be seen, not the feeder.

Thanks for the votes and comments, Everyone! The colors in this feeder were chosen to help attract butterflies. Many species of adult butterflies are drawn to yellow and red.

Different colors would have been better. Now it looks like Dexter has been hacking away at my butterflies. :-(

far too fragile and poorly designed for my area - the first wind would tip it over...if the squirrel hadn't gotten to it first.

No attractive and appears "cheap".

I like the concept but, I would be concerned that squirrels would eat out of it.

I love the concept of attracting butterflies, but like many of those who have already commented, I do not like the colors. It does resemble blood splatter and without a price listed, I have to opt for a thumbs down.
Monica

Do not like the colors but like the idea...would like this in more neutral colors that would help highlight the butterflies

The only thing that I don't like is the use of a sea sponge.
