Sphinx Butterfly Necklace

Here is the Butterfly Sphinx skull necklace. Stainless steel pendant.

With its skull -shaped spot on its thorax, the butterfly has fueled many stories and legends in the rural villages of Africa where it originated. Its shrill cry emitted during danger caused fear among residents when the moth entered homes. Superstition claimed that the presence of the insect announced imminent death in the home. This popular belief led to the persecution of the sphingid for many years.
