Lucite Pendant w/ Bombardier Beetle Acid-Squirting Insect Teardrop Shape 1.75"

This handcrafted lucite pendant is a miniature museum piece with a wild twist. Measuring 1.75" tall by 1.125" wide, the teardrop-shaped resin encases a real bombardier beetle—a member of the Carabidae family, famous for its ability to eject a boiling chemical spray when threatened. The beetle’s black body and orange markings are strikingly preserved, showcasing its natural armor and vivid coloration. Suspended in crystal-clear lucite, the insect appears frozen mid-crawl, offering a dramatic and educational glimpse into nature’s defense systems. Whether worn as a statement of curiosity, gifted to a science lover, or added to a collection of oddities, this pendant is a conversation starter with bite. Nature’s own pyrotechnics, preserved in lucite!
