This amulet features a beautiful real electroformed Banksia Jewel Beetle, a native beetle species also known by the latin name Cyrioides Imperialis. The electroformed beetle in this amulet has been adorned with two Labradorite crystals.
The tradition of wearing adornments featuring insects was thought to have originated in Egypt, a tradition that was later revived in Europe during the Victorian era. Beetles have long been associated with change and rebirth.
All electroformed surfaces are coated with a clear sealant to prevent tarnishing and oxidisation.
Measurements:
Pendant: 7cm length x 3cm width at widest point
Cord: Adjustable kangaroo leather cord (66cm at longest length). The cord features a sliding bead so that the pendant can be worn long or short like a choker.
