There are more than 160,000 species of moths.
A gold necklace features a braided wire chain, at the center of which hangs a moth-shaped ornament. The insect has a pebbled body flanked by wide wings inlaid with red, orange, and green enamel. Ribbed, leaf-shaped antennae extend from the head. The pendant connects via a circular ring to a knotted section of the chain. At the top, the wire ends in textured cones and a hook clasp.
