Miniature specimens we have collected in our travels and foraging - some have shells, crayfish claws, bones, miniature gems, mushrooms, fossils, dried plant skeletons, dried floral, etc...
We use our favorite specimen bottles from June & December, fill them and label them.
The Ouroboros Snake Skeleton Set features two mini Chinese water snake paper repica skeletons. We love adding these to a curiosity cabinet or glass terrarium dome. These tiny water snakes are too delicate for words, each little rib and spine duplicated in perfect paper detail. Each little skeleton measures approximately 4.75"x3"
