Scarlet Tiger/ Cinnabar Moth Heart-Shaped Ornament

Hang this beautiful designer ornament in your home. This ceramic decoration is double-sided and features the Cinnabar Moth and the Small Magpie; taken from my original paintings (also available to buy). The scale and preciousness of the ceramic conveys the jewel-like moths in all their modest beauty.
Scarlet Tiger: This moth is mainly found in the South and South-West of England. They can be seen in May and June, in habitats near water like fens and riverbanks and often fly in the late afternoon and early evening sunshine. It looks to me like a gorgeous fashion classic, with strong timeless design and colour combination.
The Cinnabar Moth: is nocturnal but may be active during the day if disturbed. Their black and yellow stripy caterpillars feed on ragwort. The bright colours indicate they are distasteful as a warning to predators.

10% of all profit from the sale of these paintings goes to The Countryside Restoration Trust; a champion of biodiversity, restoring farming landscapes and woodlands for wildlife. Through education and engagement, they inspire the wider countryside community to understand and appreciate the importance of wildlife to farming, food, the natural environment and wellbeing.
Moth numbers are in decline. One report concludes that the number are down approximately 28% since 1968. This is cause for concern because moths are an indicator species and an important part of the ecosystem, telling us about the health of the environment. Moths are prevalent in a vast number of different habitats and are extremely sensitive to changes. The CRT monitors the numbers and ranges of moths on their properties in order to identify changes to nature such as new farming practices, air pollution and climate change.
