Hand carved wings in wax, then cast them in brass to create a fun play on man made versus nature. The metal wings are plated with 22kt gold, whereas the beetle wings are only trimmed and pierced, nothing more. This all hangs from a reticulated disc post earring, for ease of wear. Truly a dramatic and breathtaking piece to own and wear.
