Product Description
Dragonflies belong to the Order of animals Odanata. All Odanates start life as gill-breathing larva living in water. After 2-5 years, they metamorphose into winged adults and breathe through spiracules (holes) in their abdomen. Dragonflies have voracious appetites, using their large compound eyes and keen eyesight to prey on small animals.Contrary to popular belief, dragonflies cannot sting or harm humans in any way! In fact, dragonglflies are extremely beneficial-for they eat large quantities of insect pests such as flies, mosquitoes, midges, and gnats.This is a pair of silver and enamel post earrings. Master artisans paint each article by hand using solutions containing colored granules of glass. Next, they fire the pieces in a kiln to produce an alluring richness of color. They measure approximately 1.7cm by 1.0cm.
