Real insect earrings for women Funky weird taxidermy jewelry Green jewel beetle wings elytra scarab Science teacher gifts biology

These gorgeous and unique earring sare made with a pair of REAL jewel beetle wings! (Read below for more on how I ethically obtain the wings) The Jewel Beetle (Scientific name: Chrysochroa Fulminans) originates from Indonesia. Jewel beetles have natural shiny metallic wing shells. Each wing measures approximately 30-40mm long. Choose from vibrant emerald green, blue-green, or copper-green wings! Wings then hung on your choice of silver tone, antique gold tone, yellow gold tone, or rose gold tone french hooks. An upgrade to real sterling silver or 14k gold filled earring wires also available. Earrings will come in a custom gift pouch with literature on the species of insect, and a free die-cut sticker or magnet! *NOTE: These beetle wings are sourced ethically & eco-friendly. The beetles are raised on insect farms. Insect 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!
