Red Flasher Butterfly Genuine Framed Specimen

Some things earn a nickname. The Red Flasher earned its name by being the kind of insect that stops you cold, which is a respectable quality in any creature.

The wings hit different depending on how you look at it, and that's not a metaphor. The dorsal side runs iridescent petrol blue into sea blue, shifting as the light moves, the kind of colour that reads almost industrial under certain lighting. Flip the perspective and the verso lands on a bold brick red that has no business being that vivid. It's the visual equivalent of a band that plays two completely different genres across side A and side B. Bits & Bugs sources and frames these properly, making them the kind of dark aesthetic wall piece that works in a gothic bedroom, a horror collector's study, or anywhere that generic art from a chain store would look embarrassing.

Genuine preserved butterfly specimen, professionally set and framed under glass. Ready to hang. Sourced ethically by Bits & Bugs.
