Rare Sulawesi Moon Moth framed taxidermy - Actias isis - Victorian mount - minor damage

$188.00

Stunning and large real Sulawesi Moon moth, Actias isis from Indonesia, presented in a handmade 8.5"x9.5" wood frame. Professionally mounted on black paper. Very large 5.55 inch wingspan, and 5.8 inches from top to bottom. These don't come around very often, especially in such good condition. I am selling this specimen at a discount due to the tear on the left forewing. I have prepared this moth with the wings slightly lowered, in a style that was popular during the late 19th century. You will receive the exact same framed specimen shown in the pictures. Curious Kingdom has been lovingly crafting our handmade insect frames for over a decade. We have provided these natural displays for nature enthusiasts, museums, and television and film sets. Most of our insects are ethically sourced from farming operations located throughout the world. All of our insect frames are handmade from painted birch wood in New Orleans, Louisiana. I personally prepare each insect one at a time and put everything together here at my Bug Studio in Silver City, NM. All frames come with 99% UV protective glass so you don't have to worry about your investment ever fading. (Although it is a good idea to still keep out of direct sunlight.) Combined shipping for multiple purchases is just $2 extra for each additional bug.
