Idomeneus Giant Owl Butterfly Earrings

The Idomeneus Giant Owl butterfly was named for Idomeneus, the leader of the Cretan army during the Trojan War. But they also get their name from the “eyes” on their wings which make them look like an owl.

These sterling silver earrings are made with real Idomeneus Giant Owl butterfly wings, collected sustainably by an indigenous community in Peru after the butterflies' natural life cycle has been completed. Afterwards, the wings are carefully set into sterling silver bezels, allowing you to see both sides of the butterfly’s wing. Your purchase of this butterfly wing jewelry supports habitat preservation in the Amazon rainforest and allows the butterfly’s beauty to live on. Size: 1.18" x 1.39" including ear wires. Sterling silver. Fair trade.
