Discover the awe-inspiring beauty of Attacus atlas - the world's largest moth species. These packs of giant Atlas moth specimens offers exceptional value for framers, artists, collectors, and retailers seeking nature's most magnificent lepidoptera with an impressive 8-inch wingspan.

Why Atlas Moths Are Extraordinary

  • World's Largest Moth - Massive 8-inch (20cm) wingspan creates breathtaking visual impact
  • Intricate Wing Patterns - Rich russet, cream, and pink tones with distinctive transparent 'windows'
  • A1/A1- Premium Grade - Hand-selected for vibrant colours, intact wings, and excellent condition
  • Wholesale Value - Pack of 10 offers significant savings for bulk projects and retail stock
  • Unmounted & Ready - Dry-preserved specimens ready for setting, framing, or creative work

Nature's Living Artwork

Atlas moths are named after the Greek Titan who held up the heavens - a fitting tribute to their enormous size and majestic presence. The intricate wing patterns feature earthy tones of rust, cream, pink, and brown, with distinctive triangular transparent 'windows' that resemble snake heads - a natural defence mechanism that has evolved over millennia.

Perfect For Professional & Creative Projects

These moth specimens are ideal for diverse applications. Create stunning framed displays and shadow boxes, use in natural history installations and museum exhibits, stock your retail shop or gallery, incorporate into wedding décor and event styling, embed in resin for large-scale art pieces, build educational collections, or use for scientific photography and illustration.

What You'll Receive

Choose you pack size of 2, 10 or 100 giant Atlas moths (Attacus atlas), each carefully preserved and packaged. Specimens arrive unmounted with wings closed, ready for setting, framing, or your creative projects. Expect impressive 8-inch wingspans with the characteristic russet and cream colouration and transparent wing windows that make this species instantly recognizable.

Fascinating Natural History

Atlas moths are found across tropical and subtropical forests of Southeast Asia. Remarkably, adult Atlas moths don't eat - they live entirely on energy stored during their caterpillar stage, surviving only 5-7 days to mate and lay eggs. This brief but spectacular adult life makes preserved specimens all the more precious.

  • Frame shops and galleries creating high-end moth displays
  • Interior designers sourcing dramatic statement pieces
  • Retailers stocking natural history curiosities and gifts
  • Event stylists and wedding planners
  • Taxidermists and natural history artists
