Luna moths are a favorite, no question. There is nothing like finding one on your window screen in the spring or summer. They are exquisite. The moth itself, has a short life span, living maybe a week if it's lucky. And during that week, it neither eats nor drinks. It's the caterpillar that spends it's life span of several weeks eating and storing energy for its final moth-stage. By the time it gets to its final instar, the caterpillar is plump and lovely. Right before pupating, it takes on a lovely plum tinge on top of its glowing green. This is the stage that this Luna Moth Caterpillar Necklace represents. The focal point is 2 1/4" wide by 1 1/2" tall including the dangling birch leaf. The chain is 20" long and adjustable to shorter lengths.
