Rajahs Birdwing

Enjoy the iridescent beauty of this real butterfly necklace. Set on a bold black background the electric green pattern stands out magnificently on this butterfly wing. The Latin name of this butterfly is Trogonoptera Brookiana but it is better known as "Rajas Birdwing". A highly praised and sought after specimen, it is native to Borneo, Malaysia and the surrounding areas. I have captured here a section of its wing between two pieces of glass that I cut by hand and sealed together using lead free solder. Framing this section of wing as I have creates a wonderful abstract quality to this work of art. This eye catching pendant measures 7/8" by 1 1/8" making for a naturally bold statement. It comes on an 18 inch 1.5mm black leather cord with a small chain extension and an easy to use lobster clasp. Though simple in design you will find this necklace to be absolutely stunning.
