This one-of-a-kind piece is housed beneath an authentic antique glass cloche, giving it a quiet, archival presence that cannot be replicated with modern materials. Inside rests a single preserved cicada, left in its natural coloring and form, surrounded by layered dried botanicals and natural moss.
Each element was placed by hand, with care taken to preserve the cicada’s integrity and to let the materials speak softly rather than overwhelm the composition. The age of the glass adds subtle imperfections and warmth, lending the piece a sense of history and permanence.
This is not a decorative replica — it is a finished specimen-style artwork that blends entomology, botanical preservation, and antique display. No reproductions will be made.
Dimensions:
7.5 IN. With base
6.75 In. Widest part of base
7 IN. H x 4 IN. W
