$35.00
🦋 Real Butterfly Wing Earrings - Queen Butterfly - Danaus gilippus - Resin Sterling Silver

These handmade butterfly wing earrings are created using real butterfly wings from a Queen butterfly (Danaus gilippus), carefully preserved and encased in clear resin to showcase the rich amber-orange coloration, bold veining, and subtle white spotting characteristic of this species.

The Queen butterfly is closely related to the Monarch but features deeper orange tones and a more refined pattern, making these earrings a striking and elegant piece of wearable natural history.

This listing includes both forewing and hindwing earring options, allowing you to choose the wing style you prefer. Because these earrings are made from natural materials, each pair will vary slightly, making every set unique.
