About Curious Kingdom
For over nine years, Curious Kingdom has hand-mounted rare insect specimens for collectors who care as much about craftsmanship and provenance as they do about the specimen itself. We're the largest selection of framed specimens on the web, with over 1,500 different species represented.
Ethically sourced
99% of our specimens are ethically sourced from farming operations, insect breeders, or antique collections. Insect farming has a positive influence on local insect populations.

Museum-grade materials
All frames include 99% UV-blocking, museum-quality glass so your specimen will never fade, and are built with acid-free archival materials throughout.
