Deaths Head Hawkmoth
Deaths Head Hawkmoth
An artistically rendered specimen.
The Deaths Head Hawkmoth looks stunning perched about your collarbones.
This natural beauty was meticulously hand-beaded using hundreds of tiny glass Delica beads for the wings and an intricately hand-carved Labradorite skull for the body/ deaths head.
The necklace is comprised of a luxe strand of faceted Pyrite coins accented with 18kt gold vermeil and Garnet. It is finished off with a vintage-look gold-plated filigree box clasp.
wingspan: 6 inches
height: 2.75 inches
necklace: 18 inches
She arrives beautifully presented in her own "Riker Mount" (scientific display case) with her Latin name and origin handwritten inside. The "common" name is written on the back of the case along with a listing of stones and other elements used in her creation. These pieces are signed by the artist.
You can attach a picture hook to the back of the case and display the Deaths Head Hawkmoth as an art/ scientific specimen as a lovely alternative to hiding her away in your jewelry box!
ps Butterflies and Moths bring us so much beauty and they are wonderful pollinators during their short and fragile life-spans. With this hand-crafted artistic specimen, you can enjoy that beauty and rejoice in the knowledge that not a single wing was harmed in its creation xo
