Papilio blumei
The Peacock Butterfly in Glass Dome

Gorgeous!

Beautiful animal. Depending on the incidence of light and viewing angle, its wings sometimes shimmer greenish, sometimes bluish.

Graellsia isabellae
Female Spanish Moon Moth Frame

Wow

What a beauty this lil guy is, he is my absolute favourite. Something so mysterious and different about him he really is a curious little thing - almost other worldly

Pachyrhynchus sp
Colourful Spotted Weevil Beetles

Like little jewels

These weevils are incredibly beautiful each one has its own slight difference in pattern and all are strikingly shiny, a real fascinating collection to look at and compare with each other

Papilio ulysses telegonus
Blue Emperor Butterfly Frame

Brightest blue!

This butterfly has the brightest colors I have ever seen. The blue on the wings is so vivid that it stands out easily in any space.

Papilio blumei

Feeding my addiction to butterflies and moths

Once again Minibeasts has appeased my addiction to butterflies and moths and I absolutely adore this new addition, the colours and size of this butterfly is truly incredible!

Goliathus goliatus albatus
Male & Female Goliath Beetle

Very nice pair of Goliath beetles

Extremely pleased with this set. As usual can’t fault the customer service. The beetle arrived promptly and has filled the last gap on my gallery wall. Very striking Goliath beetles which I would recommend.

The shapes and textures on this bug are fascinating, a very intimidating little fellow.

Buprestidae
Jewel Beetle Trio Beetle Frame

Each One Shines On It's Own

I love these little guys! The 3 of them in one frame is great because it fits perfectly in a spot where I needed a long slim frame. Each one of the beetles can easily stand on it's own and shine. The option to have all 3 in one frame with a lower price point rather than 3 separate framed specimens thus more bang for the buck was great for me too. I'm pretty obsessed with my collection at this point.

Ornithoptera priamus

Morpho didius
Blue Morpho Butterfly in 8 x 8 inch Box Frame

First framed butterfly

This is the first framed butterfly I've ever owned and it is beautiful! The specimen is perfect. The blue colour changes in the light like magic.

Definitely would recommend getting one if you love butterflies.

Chrysiridia rhipheus
Madagascan Sunset Moth Frame

Incredible

Nature just continues to astound me and the Madagascan Sunset Moth is an incredible example of how breathtaking beautiful and magical life is. This is a wonderful specimen with spectacular iridescent wings that remind me of glitter in the sunlight.

Acherontia atropos
Death's Head Moth Frame

The must-have moth for every collection!

I had one of these when I was a kid - such a fascinating moth, I think it would be a great addition to any collection even without the famous skull pattern on it’s back, but it’s that and the link to Thomas Harris’s book that makes it such a must-have species I think. As with my other specimens from minibeast, it’s immaculately presented in a well constructed frame that hangs easily on my wall. Stunning.

Thysania agrippina
Witch Moth Frame

Wow!

Troides hypolitus
Female Rippons Birdwing Frame

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

Salamis parhassus
Forest Mother-Of-Pearl Butterfly Frame

One of my favourite butterflies!

The iridescent pink/purple on this butterfly is so understated in the photos. It’s really quite hard to capture how gorgeous it is with a camera. The butterfly is such good quality and shines in the light. The frame is amazing quality. I understand why this butterfly is named so!

YouTuber builds his studio

I am a YouTuber and previously used a blue paper wall for filming. My living room didn't look so pretty because of it. I wanted to change that and came across Minibeast.
I took out a subscription and ordered 13 more objects. In the photos you can see how I transformed my new studio. More frames have already been ordered! :-)

Godyris duillia
Clear Winged Butterfly in Glass Dome

I can see Clearwing now the rain has gone

This Clearwing specimen is perfectly preserved and pinned. 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.

Chrysiridia rhipheus
Madagascan Sunset Moth Ventral Side in Glass Dome

Insanely Beautiful

I am so happy with this purchase. This is my new favorite in my collection. The butterfly is larger than I expected and the colors are so vibrant and beautiful it looks like a creature from a different planet! It never ceases to amaze me the quality of work you guys do for a very reasonable price (please don't raise your prices I need to continue feeding my obsession).

Creobroter gemmatus

The mantis is a unique addition to any collection. The combination of green, yellow, and pink makes it an attention-grabber, and I like that I can get a closer look at the details through the bell jar.

Atticus Atlas

Over 40 years ago I bought my first mount, an Atticus Atlas as it was supposed to be the largest moth.. Sadly it bleached in the sun and is quite pale now. This replacement is in a clear glass frame and will remain in a windowless room, so this one won't bleach.

Actias dubernardi
Male Chinese Moon Moth Frame

Male Chinese Moon Moth

Another Reviewer suggested a pair of these makes a nice contrast with blue butterflies. I'm getting a pair and will put them atop my Morpho wall.

Tails keep showing up on butterflies and moths and I wonder what evolutionary advantage they convey. I think these are some of the longest tails and maybe a predator just ends up with a mouth full of tail.
