The great mormon is known for its striking sexual dimorphism: males are typically dark and iridescent, while females mimic other toxic butterfly species to ward off predators. In the iconic Chinese love tragedy "The Butterfly Lovers," Liang and Zhu transform into great mormons after sacrificing themselves for love. The butterfly therefore symbolizes destined love in Chinese culture. Inspired, this pair feature a unique split-magnet mechanism that allows the four halves of the two pins to detach and reassemble easily – representing the unbreakable unification of two loving souls.
