Product Description

Elegantly fusing engineering and biology, and inspired by the naturalists of yesteryear, this one of a kind mechanically customized insect sculpture by Insect Lab is a unique work of art in a league of its own— seemingly ripped from the pages of a retro sci-fi tale. This piece features a perfectly preserved iridescent green African flower beetle customized with glass lens, antique watch parts, gears, dials, springs and other mechanical components

Each of these biomechanical works of art is handmade to order, so no two ever look exactly the same. Individually presented in a glass dome display with a suede mat lined base, this incredible work adds a vintage, naturalist touch to any space.

FAQ
Are the mechanics inside operable? Can they be wound up or?

If you are curious if this moves, the answer is no. It is a stationary sculpture, that incorporates previously working mechanisms. Because they are real insects, expired and dry, any additional movement would make them wear down and deteriorate.
