Lunar Moth Wall Art Death Moth Metal Sign

Eyespots on every wing.

A large moth spreads across the disc, its wings painted in bands of teal, emerald and magenta with paisley scrollwork worked through them. Four dark eyespots ringed in gold stare out from the wing panels, and the striped body runs down the centre in blue and copper.

Behind it the sky is green and starlit, a dark orb crossing a bright crescent overhead. Broad leaves and small coral flowers crowd the bottom edge. The border is the loudest part: jewelled cabochons in blue and pink set into gold filigree at the four points, with vines running between them. Every gem and every raised curl of that border is flat printing on aluminium, so the surface stays smooth under your hand.

The moth is a familiar guide toward the moon in folk tradition, which makes this a fit for a bedroom wall or a stairwell rather than a seasonal display. The colours hold up year round. Send it to the friend whose shelves are already full of pinned insects and pressed flowers.
