Real Preserved Scorpion in Epoxy Resin – Oval Dome Cabochon Pendant | Taxidermy Curiosity

Real Preserved Scorpion in Epoxy Resin – Oval Dome Cabochon | Wearable Taxidermy

This is not a replica. This is not a print. Suspended in a smooth, creamy ivory epoxy resin dome is a genuine real scorpion, preserved in full detail — every leg, every claw, every segment of the tail and stinger visible in perfect clarity. The high-dome oval cabochon form acts as a natural magnifying lens, bringing the scorpion's extraordinary anatomy into sharp focus.

The warm ivory-cream background of the resin creates a striking contrast against the dark amber-brown of the preserved specimen, giving this piece the quality of a naturalist's display under glass. A small drilled hole on the reverse allows it to be worn as a pendant or incorporated into jewelry and craft projects.

This piece sits at the intersection of natural history, taxidermy art, and wearable curiosity jewelry — a tradition with roots in 19th-century natural philosophy cabinets and Victorian memento mori jewelry. Today it appeals to collectors of oddities, lovers of dark aesthetic jewelry, and anyone drawn to the raw power and symbolism of the scorpion.

💡 Styling & Use

Thread on a leather cord, chain, or macramé for a bold pendant necklace. The oval format and neutral cream resin work with both bohemian and edgy styles. Also makes a striking display piece on its own — use a small stand or frame it on cotton batting in a shadow box.

🦂 About the Scorpion

Scorpions are among the oldest arthropods on Earth — virtually unchanged for 430 million years. As a symbol, the scorpion represents protection, transformation, power, and survival across cultures from ancient Egypt to Mesoamerica and the Arab world. Wearing one carries a bold, primal statement.

⚠️ Natural Specimen Note

As a genuine natural specimen, minor variations in the scorpion's position, leg arrangement, and color are authentic features of the individual specimen — not defects. No two pieces are identical.
