Double Madagascan Sunset Moth (Chrysiridia rhipheus)

Perfect Centrepiece of Tessellation

I think the ventral and dorsal colours on this moth are stunning and it has made for an impressive centrepiece of a wall tessellation.

As always, presentation is flawless within the frame and the frame itself, and delivery was as quick as anyone could hope for a bespoke item.

I truly recommend this specimen and have not received any so far that have not exceeded my expectations.

Well done Minibeast team!

Amazing value

We've had this for 9 months now and as you can see we've been sent a fantastic selection. Lots of variety of specimens all in fantastic condition and beautifully framed. We now have enough to display and can't wait to get them on the walls!

Female Rippons Birdwing In Box Frame (Troides hypolitus)

Gorgeous!

The only birdwing I have that's presented on the ventral side, and it's the right way round I think - this species actually looks pretty similar on the dorsal and ventral sides but the yellow markings on the ventral side are more interesting and more clearly defined. This is another really huge specimen and as always immaculately presented by the team at Minibeast

Stunning.

I asked for this beetle with the wings out and I’m delighted with the result.
Very impressive addition to my collection.
And also filled an awkward gap on my stairs nicely.

Monthly Moths (and Butterflies)

This has been such a great investment. My work takes me away from home for long periods of time and this has been the perfect way to have something nice to surprise my girlfriend with while I am away. Our apartment is quickly being filled with some great specimens and I'm always excited to see what shows up next.

Can’t wait to see next months

I signed up for the mini beast club, I picked the blue swallowtail because let’s be honest it’s such a striking butterfly.

It arrived and pictures don’t do it justice. It’s so elegantly done and really does stop people in their tracks to compliment it.

Electric blue beauty

My first reaction out of the box was woooooow. The colour is beyond what pictures can do justice.

I also love that in different light you can see the symmetrical patterns in the wings. It’s a good sized frame too, a real centrepiece.

Colour-Shifting

Depending on how you look at this butterfly and what lighting it is in, it gives off an array of different colours which change each time I look back at it. This has to be one of my favourite pieces in my collection.

Agrias beata beatifica
Agrias Butterfly
Agrias Butterfly In Box Frame (Agrias beata beatifica)

Agrias butterfly

Very nice vivid colour, perfect in a decorated frame!
The only thing that I think would improve the frame is if the name of the butterfly was at the bottom of it, like it is in the standard frames.

Not knowing what butterfly it is takes some charm out of the overall effect, it could put me off buying more decorated frames in the future....

But overall I'm pleased with the purchase
