Silk Worm Growing Paperweight

The Silk Worm paperweight is a truly amazing and unique gift. This paperweight displays every stage of a silk worm’s life, from ova to moth, in transparent acrylic glass.

The Bombyx mori goes through a fascinating process, growing into a caterpillar from the ova (egg) stage before covering itself in a silk cocoon, finally emerging as a flightless moth to begin the cycle again.

The stunning Silk Worm paperweight not only makes a fantastic decoration for your desk, but is also a brilliant educational tool for children. Rather than reading about the metamorphic process of moths and butterflies in books they can get a close look at real specimens.

All moths and caterpillers used are already dead prior to being preserved. All insects are raised in a manner, which helps support local economies and ensures the preservation of the natural habitat for these beautiful creatures.
