Rare Giant Hercules Atlas moth framed taxidermy - Coscinocera hercules - female - minor repair

$348.00

Huge and very rarely offered FEMALE giant Hercules moth, Coscinocera hercules from Papua New Guinea, presented in a handmade 9.5"x11.5" wood frame. Professionally mounted on black paper. This moth is gorgeous, massive wingspan of 6.45 inches with a very beautiful ruddy brown coloration. 6.8 inches from top to bottom. One of the largest moths on earth :) A rare tailed cousin to the Atlas moth. You will receive the exact same framed specimen shown in the pictures. I am selling her at a discount due to the small repair at the top of the left hindwing. 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.
