The Symphony of Decay - Illuminated Gramophone Jewel Beetle and Roe Buck Skull Diorama
Breathe an extraordinary, magical warmth into your cabinet of curiosities with this breathtaking glowing centrepiece.
Handcrafted for alternative interior curators, dark academia enthusiasts, and high-ticket oddity collectors, this phenomenal assemblage transforms an upcycled gramophone-style housing into an enchanted woodland terrarium. Resting beneath a clear circular viewport is a genuine, professionally prepped Roe Buck deer (Capreolus Capreolus) skull cranium, nestled onto a lush bed of vibrant faux moss and deep crimson faux blossoms.
Interacting across this micro-habitat are two magnificent, exotic Banded Jewel Beetles (Chrysochroa Buqueti Rugicollis), celebrated for their smooth, cream-yellow bodies accented by brilliant metallic violet-blue patches. One beetle is artfully pinned scaling the ridges of the bone, while the second explores the forest floor. Powered by an integrated string of warm battery-operated fairy lights, the entire scene glows beautifully from within, reflecting off the antique-brushed gold filigree and dramatic fluted speaker horn above.
100% real, sustainably sourced exotic Banded Jewel Beetles (Chrysochroa Buqueti Rugicollis) paired with a nature found, cleaned UK Roe Buck (Capreolus Capreolus) cranium.
Upcycled vintage-style gramophone clock case with an antiqued bronze/gold brushed finish and a sweeping fluted speaker horn.
Care Instructions: To protect the deep violet iridescence of the jewel beetles and preserve the bone surface, keep your diorama display away from long periods of harsh, direct sunlight or high-moisture rooms. Switch off the led lights when not in use. Simply dust off the exterior housing and glass window with a soft, dry microfibre cloth.
