Description

Here's a box filled with treasures for those of us who find ourselves intrigued and inspired by all the wonderful oddities of nature.
The specimen box has been labeled with a custom Victorian inspired label. Dated 1875 for fun.
The contents of the box are snuggled safely in wood excelsior. The box is vintage and worn nicely on the edges.

Inside the box you will find:
*Container filled with various insect and butterfly wings
*Various sea shells
*Sea urchins
*Sea urchin spines
*Snake egg
*Hatched quail egg
*Various pheasant feathers
*2 flamingo feathers
*White coral
*Test tube filled with cicada skins
*Test tube filled with mouse bones
*Test tube sample of zebra skin

The box looks smashing displayed as it is in the first photo. Perfect for displaying on a desk, bookcase, as part of a unique table center piece, or sat among your other curios.
