The Baroque Botanical Dome - Real African Swallowtail Butterfly Taxidermy

Step into an enchanted garden frozen in time with this luxurious, three-dimensional miniature masterpiece.

Handcrafted for dark academia curators, alternative interior decorators, and lovers of premium entomology art, this exquisite egg-shaped glass dome showcases a pristine specimen of the African Swallowtail (Papilio Dardanus Tibullus). Native to the tropical regions of Africa, this striking butterfly features velvety dark borders framing broad, luminous cream-coloured wings with delicate trailing tails.

The specimen is artfully mounted over a lush bouquet of deep magenta faux roses, perfectly framed within a highly ornate, miniature rococo frame finished in brilliant metallic gold lacquer. The entire display is supported by a hidden easel backing, where a wild cascade of green faux moss trails down onto the forest floor below. Enclosed beneath a premium glass cloche resting on a warm finished natural wood base, it functions as a mesmerizing accent piece for vanities, study desks, or bookshelves.

100% real, sustainably sourced African Swallowtail butterfly (Papilio Dardanus Tibullus). Professionally pinned and preserved by hand.

Dimensions approximately 7.5 inches (19 cm) x 4.75 inches (12 cm).

Care Instructions: To permanently protect the deep natural pigments of the swallowtail wings and maintain the bright lustre of the gold frame, display your dome away from high-humidity rooms and long periods of direct, harsh sunlight. To clean, simply wipe the glass exterior with a soft microfibre cloth.
