Real Priam's Birdwing Butterfly Wing Working Pocket Watch necklace

✨DETAILS✨🔽
★ I have handmade this gorgeous pocketwatch necklace with a real Green Priam's Birdwing butterfly wing embedded under magnified glass! (All butterfly wings sourced ethically and eco-friendly! Read more about how I get my butterfly wings below!). This is a working pocketwatch that flips open to expose the clock inside! This gorgeous antique style pocket watch measures 1.5 inches x 2 inches and is on a long 30 inchchain. Comes with watch battery already installed.

The Priam’s Birdwing Butterfly, also known as Ornithoptera Priamus, is found in the central and south Moluccas, New Guinea, Bismarck Archipelago, Solomon Islands, and northeast Australia. “Ornithoptera Priamus” is named after Priam, the king of Troy during the Trojan War.

Each piece will arrive in its own custom gift pouch, ready to gift or keep, with literature on the species of butterfly, and a free die-cut sticker or magnet!

*NOTE* No Butterflies are harmed in the making of my jewelry! All butterflies are raised on butterfly farms and sanctuaries and allowed to live their full lifespan, which averages about 1 month, and then collected and sold so that their beauty can live on! Butterfly Farming actually helps to preserve rain forests and also assures the survival of natural butterfly habitats. Native people are encouraged to grow plants and raise insects opposed to clearing land for cash crops. I am a member of and donate to the Rainforest Alliance, a nonprofit organization dedicated to preserving the Rainforest and the many species that live within it, including the Blue Morpho Butterfly!
