Description :
A striking three‑piece ensemble blending science, sculpture, and metaphysical charm.
The centerpiece is an Emperor Scorpion—expertly preserved and showcased in a crystal‑clear plexiglass block measuring 5¾ in. H × 4¾ in. W × 1½ in. D. Its dramatic silhouette and fine anatomical detail make it an instant focal point for any cabinet of curiosities. Complementing the display is a hand‑carved lapis serpent, sourced from Mexico and measuring 5 inches long. The deep cobalt stone, flecked with natural gold pyrite, gives the snake a regal presence and a tactile, sculptural weight. Completing the trio is a whimsical Monkey‑and‑Tree Candle holder but we have paired a crystal ball for amusement. Designed with a climbing monkey wrapped around a textured tree trunk. It supports a smooth, polished crystal sphere (approx. 2 in. diameter, scaled from the reference coin), creating a playful yet mystical accent. Together, these pieces form part natural history, part artisan craft, and entirely display‑ready.
