Moth Pin
The Moth Pin celebrates the often-overlooked nocturnal cousins of butterflies. Moths outnumber butterflies by 9 to 1 worldwide, with many species displaying patterns and colors that rival any butterfly. These nighttime pollinators use the moon for navigation, which explains why artificial lights confuse them—they're trying to maintain a constant angle to what they think is the distant moon but is actually a nearby lamp.
Perfect for night nature enthusiasts, anyone who appreciates the full diversity of Lepidoptera, and those who understand that moths serve crucial ecological roles despite lacking butterflies' daytime fame. This pin represents the creatures that pollinate night-blooming flowers and feed countless nocturnal predators—essential workers of the darkness.
Choose from multiple finishes to suit your style. Built with materials sourced from long-established U.S. suppliers and finished by hand in Washington. It's wearable art that honors the misunderstood pollinators of the night.
