5 MORPHO SULKOWSKII butterflies
PUIN083
These five MORPHO SULKOWSKII butterflies, native to the Andean tropical forests of Peru and Colombia, stand out from other morphos by their opaline hues, shimmering in silvery pale blue with occasional hints of pink. This unique iridescence is not pigment-based but results from the microscopic structure of the wing scales, which diffract light.
A mountain species rarely seen in collections, MORPHO SULKOWSKII typically flies between 1,000 and 2,000 meters in altitude, setting it apart from other members of the Morpho genus, which are usually found in lowland rainforests.
The butterflies are displayed in a capsule-shaped glass dome, a custom design by Objet de Curiosité, featuring a brushed metal base inspired by the 60's shapes. A refined and minimalist presentation, in the spirit of contemporary curiosities.
