You want to start your own collection, or are you an artist who needs real insects for a project ?
We offer dried and papered specimens you can moisten a little bit at home to relax the articulation.
This way, you can place the legs, wings and antennae the way you want.
There are many tutorials on our Youtube channel explaining this easy technique :

Here is how we grade the quality of our specimens :
If not mentionned in the title, the specimen is A1 quality.
A1 = As perfect as all reasonable expectations dictate
A1 / A1- = Virtually perfect and fresh. A minor flaw or so. Sometimes only antennae damage. Excellent quality at significant savings.
A1- = Flaws, but generally respectable. Sometimes only antennae damage
A2 = Second quality, like a missing leg, but if you only want the shell this is a significant saving.
