Butterfly - Mechanical 3D Puzzle

Did you know that there are 32 native species of butterflies in Ireland? Some are quite regional: for instance, the Brown Hairstreak (thecla betula) can only be found in south Galway and north Clare where it lays eggs onto blackthorn. The rarest butterfly in Ireland is the Pearl Bordered Fritillary (boloria euphrosyne) present only in the Burren, Co. Clare. Inspired by combination of nature and mechanics Ugears keeps exploring the wonderful world of automatons. Please meet the latest addition to the family, the Butterfly model. The Butterfly is not a static still model. It is an animated kinetic sculpture. Each of its details is designed to make sure it fits its particular place and plays its particular part in the functioning of this stunning mechanism. Equipped with a rubber-band motor, the mechanical automaton moves imitating the flutter of a butterfly. It requires no external power source or batteries.
