                              I'd never heard of this species before, but it caught my eye when browsing through the site and what a stunner! Transparent wings except for the bright pink section on it's lower wings - it's quite big too! Lovely.

                                One of my favourites

                                One of the species you see in every butterfly house as it's a stunner to look at and has a beautiful slow flapping flight style, almost like how a butterfly moves in a cartoon. Very easy to photograph as well. The specimen is in tip-top condition as always, and makes a welcome addition to my collection.

                                  I mainly bought this as to go with the orange and green varieties I already had - it's a little less vibrant than the other birdwing species, but no less beautiful. As always superbly presented and framed by the team at minibeast

                                            Beautifully presented!

                                            I ordered the Comma Butterfly in a glass dome because I wanted to see both sides of the butterfly especially the white comma marks. I sent a quick message to question this and got the response I needed. I have only seen two Comma butterflies so far in my life. I was in awe of its white comma marks and its autumn coloured wings. Its one butterfly that has a special meaning to me. When the item arrived. I was amazed at how beautifully presented it is! It's very professionally done! Wrapped securely too. I would highly recommend! I'm tempting myself to a few more.

                                              I am extremely happy with my purchase and will absolutely buy another frame if I see something that catches my eye.

                                                                          Because the butterfly is darker I suggest buying it in the white frame, so it pops out. When the light hits the wings, it has a beautiful iridescent look. Not sure if the glass is UV protective, so I would be careful about placing it near a window, I would not want it to fade. Shipping was fast and it was very well packaged.

                                                                          Review added on: 16/11/2023

I think the white frame would have made it not very pretty to look at. Glad to have this piece of my collection!

My only regret is not purchasing the front back version that has two butterflies in the frame… maybe my next purchase!??

The glass dome really elevates what some people might see as a comparatively plain butterfly into an eye catching piece. I would recommend the brown wooden base option.
