Sterling Silver Earrings With Real Phoebis Philea Butterfly Wing
The Phoebis Philea can be found from the southern United States all the way south to Argentina. Also known as the Orange-Barred Sulphur (Gema in Portuguese), this highly colorful butterfly inhabits open lowland sites such as gardens and forests, flying swiftly from ground level to the treetop. It also lives among open trees, near the banks of lakes and creeks. The Orange-Barred Sulphur butterfly flies fast, and for a good reason. The brilliant yellow makes it easy for predators to see. The Phoebis Philea has to fly faster and higher in order to escape. Many busy women will identify with this elusive little butterfly! Phoebis Philea wings are shaped into oval, round and teardrop ‘gemstones’ for these elegant sterling silver drop earrings. Cubic zircon gemstones add sparkle. The gold and silver combination are easily matched with many outfits. These dainty Phoebis Philea sterling silver drop earrings are also available using the blue Morpho Aega (Brazilian Morpho) butterfly wing and the red portion of the Diaethria Clymena (88 butterfly) butterfly wing. |
