Lepidoptera Death's Head Hawkmoth Earrings

Acherontia Atropos (n) - the Death's-Head Hawkmoth is most commonly identified by the skull-shaped pattern adorning the thorax

Adopt your very own pair of Death's-Head Hawkmoth specimens! These earrings are inspired by taxidermy butterfly collections and old Natural History Illustrations, but are one hundred percent sustainable and cruelty free. They are mounted on a replica library card that fell out of a Victorian encyclopaedia of animals while I was researching specimens. 

The Cherry Wood that our designs are printed on is responsibly sourced and makes a great, lightweight material for earrings. These little moths make a delicate addition to any outfit and are light enough to be worn all day long. 

Each moth has been hand painted in watercolour before being digitally printed in the UK onto responsibly sourced laser cut Cherry Wood. The earrings are hand-assembled by Maddie in her London studio using Sterling Silver findings and attached to a backing card.

Dimensions:
Moth Charm Measures: 15mm Deep x 35mm Wide
Drop Length: 35mm

Please note that all earrings are non-returnable due to hygiene reasons.
