Green Spotted Triangle

   The fascinating markings of these real butterfly wings are really quite remarkable. The somber black wings are highlighted by an interesting pattern of bright green spots throughout. This exotic species name is Graphium Agamemnon though it more commonly referred to as a "Green Spotted Triangle". It is a member of the Papilionidae family that can found natively in India through Southeast Asia and also in Australia. With a delicate touch I have encased these butterfly wings in several layers of hand painted resin by following their flowing form to create a very natural appeal. The resin that I use is clear so what you see are the natural colors of the butterfly. This resin does transmute the colors slightly as it turns the wings semi-transparent giving them an appearance very much like stained glass. Surprisingly light weight and easy to wear, each of the wings measure approximately 1 7/8 inches in length and are suspended by hypo-allergenic earwire. Completely striking, you will be sure to enjoy plenty of attention when you wear these real butterfly earrings.
