Natural Framed Butterflies





A little something for the collector or home decor; Peruvian butterfly frames. These beautiful frames feature real butterflies raised on farms in the Amazon Jungle. Each frame features a collection of butterflies and/or moths; each labeled with their scientific names by a licensed biologist in Peru.  

The frames look best displayed with natural light but it is recommended that they are kept out of direct sunlight. See a selection of these butterflies and moths at our online shop along with other collectibles of nature; fossils, minerals and rocks!

Raw Mineral Wired Pendants


In Tucson I found these amazing drusy pendants in black amethyst and lavender drusy quartz minerals. They are so incredible, the drusy just sparkles and they very lovely done in various wired colors. I have hand wire wrapped a few of them; a couple have been left as an individual pendant to wear on different types of collars, cords or chains and the a few others have been incorporated into necklace sets.



Amethyst is a type of quartz that has taken on a violet or purple coloration due to trace impurities of iron and aluminum. The exact hue and depth varies depending on its source. It can be found in many parts of the world, the best quality specimens tend to come from Uruguay, Brazil, or southern Africa. It is often found lining the insides of geodes, especially those composed of agate; these are hollow, often spherical rock structures. 






These pendants are black amethyst from Uruguay, hand wired in non-tarnish silver wire. Their colors vary, from deep black to a mix of black and purple; the crystals really sparkle in the sunlight.













This necklace features a center pendant of lavender drusy quartz; hand wire wrapped in rose colored non-tarnish wire. 

 The necklace also features bronzite, light amethyst faceted stones and lampwork beads and crystals. It is a most unique piece and one-of-a-kind that is a little bit bold with a mix of chic style.
