Firefly Glow in the Dark Enamel Pin
Fireflies rise during summer twilight like little sparks of fire in the grass. Their light can put a smile of wonder on faces young and old as they seek mates after sundown. Take this firefly as a symbol and be a light in the darkness with your kindness, hope, and bravery! Shine on, and let no one dull your unique beauty and brilliance!
This pin features a firefly or lightning bug based on the Photuris genus, native to North America. These insects are well-known for their flickering bioluminescent displays in late June and July (particularly in Pennsylvania, where the artist is from!)
Hard enamel pin with gold plating, double-posts, and rubber clutches. Specialty enamel on the abdomen glows in the dark. Approximately 30 mm wide.
Glow-in-the-dark enamel creates a subtle but beautiful effect with this pin, mimicking the color of real fireflies' glow. For best results, charge for several minutes under direct light, then observe the glow in near-darkness. The enamel texture may look slightly different when glowing; this is normal.
