This collection of top and underwings is our first attempt to showcase a species to its fullest. We have chosen three butterflies: Morpho peleides, Hamadryas amphinome, and Papilio zenobia. Each of these are as stunning on their top side as much as their under and have pinned them as they would appear naturally in flight. It is our hope that by offering a smaller sea, you can mix and match as you please.

To capture the aetherial beauty of our golden, falling feathers, our team of artists begin by painting each bird feather gold. We literally drop the feathers onto their linen bed to preserve an authentic movement and quality to its nature.

The art of paper has always been a love of Christopher's. Many books of the early 15-17th century had paper specially-made for them, whereby the paper was an integral part of the art of book-making. In this regard, we still see the beauty in paper. This collection is part of the hand-made paper series , which becomes abstract art when framed. All of the papers are made from natural fibers and have no chemical dyes.

All Specimen Art are individually handcrafted, and therefore each piece is unique and limited in supply. Pieces may vary in color and size due to natural differences between specimens.
