I love this item. The specimen is so beautiful. Everyone who has walked into my house since it arrived (on time to add) has commented on it. Quite the conversation starter! There was some issue with the placement of the moth, but the shop owner was quick to reply and helpful and in the end I managed to fix it and place the specimen in the correct position with some help from a friend. I love it and will most definitely shop again.

Arrived in good time and meticulously packed. Both the frame and frog are fantastic quality - neatly labelled, carefully-centred, and a colourful, high quality preservation. Highly recommended. Thank you so much for the unique and beautiful display.

Oh wow, these are simply stunning!!! As a lot of people have already stated, the pictures just do not do them justice. So well made and carefully put together, and the butterflies are just things of absolute beauty. I’ve already placed another order!

MiniBeast had great customer service. They originally sent the wrong color frames, and we super responsive and sent the correct color frames right away. Items shipped quickly, and customer service was good. The specimens themselves are beautiful and professionally set. Definitely will be coming back as a repeat customer.
