Description

Carry the beauty of Charles Darwin’s favorite butterfly with you everyday. This double sided, beautiful pendent features the enchanting charm of the Callitheea philotima butterfly. The Charles Darwin necklace is also available as a single side butterfly wing necklace.

The butterfly wing is secured in a sterling silver and glass pendant that is reversible because it hangs from a pivoting bail. The domed glass on the front and back protects the wing and displays its amazing beauty. See a butterfly in my shop that you want made into jewelry, just ask!

REVERSIBLE:
front: sage green, black with hint of red
back: deep dark blue with a lighter blue

MEASUREMENTS:
The wing area of the pendant measures about 1″ long x 1/2″ wide (29 x 21mm). Comes with sterling silver chain.

CARE AND CLEANING:
Sterling silver and glass can be polished with soft cloth. Pendants are water resistant but NOT waterproof. Please remove before showering or swimming.

SAFE ORIGIN:
A have a Master’s degree in Conservation Biology that focused on insects and care deeply about the environment. A majority of my specimens I use are raised on butterfly farms around the world and are NOT collected from the wild.  These farms raise butterflies for live flying butterfly exhibits, museums and collectors.  These farms can work as an important conservation tool by giving underprivileged populations a source of income and reason to protect rainforest habitat (where most butterflies are raised).
