Bf45d #10 This is a beautiful Green Banded Sunset Moth dome~ This beautiful day flying moth is mounted to pieces of drift wood, with a wooden base, decorated in the Antique Victorian Style under a removable glass dome. This beauty is posed surrounded by preserved flowers, fern and moss, etc. as well as a real snail and Ladybug. The display would be a great addition to any collection as well as just a beautiful piece to sit anywhere. The display is approximately 5 1/2 x 3 3/4.
Butterflies are loved by all and are one of our very favorite insects. They do not sting or bite which makes them even more popular! This butterfly has been showcased in a glass dome so it can be enjoyed for years to come. These make wonderful gifts and are so beautiful most anyone receiving would be thrilled to have one!
Species and fun facts: Urania Leilus
NOTE: If your item is in a glass dome please be aware that the domes are NOT permanently connected to the base. Care has to be taken when opening or removing the dome so not to damage the display or specimen.
When purchasing this item you are agreeing to the following: No claims for small broken parts such as antennae or a detached wing, there are no refunds or discounts issued for broken antennae (we do suggest using a cat or dog whisker with a drop of glue on the end to replace broken antenna on butterflies). Wings and other small parts are easily fixable and you should be aware that you may have to fix (glue) a part when purchasing items like these. These are natural specimens and can contain a flaw or two like a shorter antenna or broken or missing legs (legs are not counted in grading of butterflies/moths and are usually not included on the body). We do our best to make sure they are close to perfect but a few might get by us although usually the flaw is minor and something that does not deflect from the beauty of the insect itself. If there is a major problem I will take care of the matter. See my feedback for confirmation. I rarely have a problem but even with good packaging it is impossible for us to Guarantee that specimens will arrive totally intact although we have had very few problems to date.
If you are purchasing one of my Victorian displays and are familiar with Antique Victorian displays, you are aware of that they have usually fallen into disarray and disintegrated to the point that they no longer show well. My displays mimic the antique look without everything being washed out and tattered due to extreme age. I keep my displays as economical as possible enabling me to make them a lot more affordable than the true antiques. Every display shows well and is sure to be noticed and commented on! All my displays are hand crafted using only the highest quality of items available and as many natural pieces as possible. Much time and thought are invested into each ONE OF A KIND DISPLAY (unless otherwise noted) as to bring life to the natural beauty of each animal so they may be enjoyed for years to come. Each display is decorated specifically to enhance the beauty of the animal/insect showcased as well as show each in a natural setting. These displays will fascinate as well as inspire wonder in all who view!
