Spotted Lanternfly Tiny Teardrop Earrings
Units in Stock: 1
Earrings are made from real Spotted Lanternflies, Lycorma delicatula, a type of "true bug". Despite their lovely colors, Spotted Lanternflies are a destructive and highly invasive species recently introduced to North America. The USDA recommends they be killed on site.
These unusual pieces of jewelry make unique gifts and are a great conversation piece. The wings are coated in multiple layers of resin surrounded by a stainless steel frame for long-term preservation and sturdiness.

All Spotted Lanternflies were collected in Maryland by a dear friend who is currently battling their invasion. These wings are all recycled. If you choose, you can give these bugs a new home and much more positive purpose.
No bugs were harmed to make this jewelry.

*Please note - all bug specimens are unique and may have slight imperfections since they were collected during pest control efforts and not killed for the purpose of making jewelry. The individual wings you get may vary slightly in imperfections, position, or coloration, from the ones in the image (or if you're the first to order it may be the exact one pictured). Please keep this in mind and be kind to the wings you receive.*
