Antique Mink Paw and Butterfly Wing Choker Necklace

This stylish velvet ribbon and lace choker features a single paw from a mink fur  displayed in an elegant black bezel. The paw is not sealed on top so it is still soft and pet-able! Dangling from the bezel is a single butterfly wing with orange and yellow coloring. This choker is adjustable by using the chain length and has a standard lobster claw clasp. The fabric itself is flexible and flat on the inside to be comfortable for long wear.

This mink paw was sourced from a damaged antique stole. *Please keep mink paw dry for long term preservation*

This wing was sourced ethically from a butterfly aviary, which is a farm that carefully breeds and selectively releases butterflies and other pollinators into local ecosystems. Butterflies used in these breeding will pass away naturally and their bodies are collected and sold for fund raising. In addition to growing struggling pollinator populations, these programs also often work in collaboration with farmers to help increase local crop yields!
