Monarch Butterflies Earrings by Not Picasso

A beautiful statement piece for all of our gardeners and nature lovers!

Did you know that monarchs undertake one of the most impressive migrations of any insect, traveling thousands of miles from Canada and the US to overwintering sites in Mexico and California? And that, the migratory generation, born in late summer, lives much longer than other generations, enabling them to complete the long journey south. Monarchs use a combination of sun compass navigation and an internal clock, guided by a protein called CRY1, to find their way to specific overwintering locations.

Made from an original design and laser-cut acrylic. Each piece is handmade, so slight differences can be expected. These are finished with hypoallergenic, anti-tarnish gold-plated hoops.

Earrings measure 1.5 x 2 inches.
