Cicada Wing Glass Earrings

These earrings were made with a found expired cicada. The wings are set between glass. I soldered a frame using a tiffany style with a textured surface and treated with a patina finish before being sealed and polished. It hangs on surgical steel ear wires embellished with gunmetal chainmail links. A fun pair of earrings for those who love nature.

All my specimens are purchased from a licensed supplier in Ontario Canada.

Handcrafted by me in my London Ontario Canada studio. Though my pieces are watertight, they are not 100% waterproof so care should be taken to not allow these to get wet.

Butterflies & Insects used in my pieces have been sustainably raised and bred on insect farms globally and play an important role in Conservation programs. Many governments and conservation programs (WWF & Nature Canada) teach sustainable practices of raising insects for economic purposes for livelihood rather than jobs that destroy rainforests such as slash and burn agricultural farming and logging. It is important to support such conservation programs that teach these sustainable economic alternatives.

100% satisfaction guaranteed.

All pieces come gift wrapped and protected in bubble wrap packaging
