VICTORIAN EGGS OF BLOWFLY MICROSCOPE SLIDE FRAME CURIO
This beautiful framed curio is 6 and 1/2 inches wide by 7 inches tall.
The image area is 4 and 1/4 inches wide by 5 inches tall.
Mounted inside is an original Victorian era Eggs of a Blowfly on a Microscope Slide.
The name blow-fly comes from an older English term for meat that had eggs laid on it, which was said to be fly blown.
Larvae of most species are scavengers of carrion and dung and most likely constitute the majority of the maggots found in such material.
This slide was mounted on vintage velvet and framed in a beautiful vintage style white frame. It is ready to hang in your own personal dime museum or sideshow.
This one-of-a-kind framed curio is signed, rubber-stamped and dated on the back by Madame Talbot.
Please Note: With all of my Framed Curio Exhibits, I try to replicate
an authentic atmosphere of Victorian-era Dime Museum Patina.
This of course refers to that very special layer of age that builds up over decades,
something which I try to incorporate into all of the framed curio pieces I make.
This Victorian-era Dime Museum Patina may include one or more of the following:
vintage dust fabric, flower petals shards, glue bits, thread strands, sun faded material,
water stained, and/or smoke burned 100-year-old paper, &c., &c., and &c.
