✨DETAILS✨🔽
★ The real butterfly wings in this fascinating pendant necklace resemble green and blue tiger stripes! I have handmade this necklace from two REAL Urania Leilus Moth Butterfly wings under a large magnified glass cabochon. The large glass cabochon measures 1.2" x 1.6". The butterfly wings are set in an antique silver setting.

This Green-banded Urania Moth (Urania leilus) is often confused for a butterfly due to its rich vibrant colors and day-flying behavior. It originates from Ecuador. The wings are blue, green, & black on both sides and form into several different patterns ranging from tiger stripes to a checkered appearance.

The Chain measures approximately 18 inchesand is meant to rest on the upper chest (as pictured). If you would prefer your pendant on a long 30 inchchain that hangs down low, just message me and I can switch it out. (Or if you would prefer to measure yourself and let me know exactly how long you would like your chain, I will be happy to make a custom length chain just for you.)

Each piece with arrive in a 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 also support 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!
