Item Details

A wonderful pair of mounted butterfly specimen display frames, c.1910.


Each is housed in a simple ebonised wooden frame that sets a quiet, museum‑like backdrop for the arrangement within. The collections feature a beautifully varied selection of butterfly and moth species, all carefully pinned and preserved in the early 20th‑century manner.


The original hand‑written paper labels remain in place, adding both charm and provenance. Together, the two frames offer a striking study in natural history - decorative, educational, and evocative of the period when entomology was a popular pursuit for both amateur collectors and scientific institutions.


Priced as a set.
