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.These displays will fascinate as well as inspire wonder in all who view!

 All displays will be carefully packed to the best of our ability to insure a safe and damage free arrival.  If free First class shipping is offered and chosen it does not include insurance.   If you want your item insured in case of damage in shipping please choose Priority Mail, that includes $100. worth of insurance.  If Priority mail free shipping is offered you will be covered by $100 worth of insurance.  If damage occurs in shipping, the post office now requires you to bring the package in to a postal center/office for inspection before any insurance payments will be approved and the item has to be in the original shipping box with all packing as you received still in box.  Your refund will be processed once the package has been inspected and the receipt from the post office acknowledging the inspection is forwarded to us.   When purchasing this item you are agreeing to the following: No claims for small broken parts such as antennae or a detached wing, antennae are so fragile that they cannot be guaranteed in shipping.  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 leg.  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 I have had very few problems to date.    If you pay for Priority mail your items will be covered by postal insurance which will cover any damage in shipping-First class does not cover damage as it is not insured.  The post office does now require you to bring the item in for inspection to receive postal insurance payouts.
