Meet Alina Blossom

Silk Butterflies was founded by Alina Blossom, also known as Alina Zadorozhna, an artist and designer originally from Ukraine.

Alina grew up surrounded by museums and art. Her mother led three museums, including an art museum, and that early environment shaped Alina’s instinct for color, material, and scale. While studying, she discovered silk as a medium that felt light, responsive, and alive.

Her first silk-wing pieces began with a practical idea: statement jewelry could attract attention without feeling heavy. That experiment grew into handcrafted butterflies, moths, dragonflies, hair accessories, masks, decorative objects, and eventually giant flowers and large-scale installations.

After the war forced a relocation to the United States, Alina continued the studio while maintaining her connection to her Ukrainian team and creative roots.

Nature remains the source, but never the raw material. Silk Butterflies does not use real butterflies. Each object is made to celebrate the delicacy, movement, and wonder of living forms without harming them.
