Ready to Display

A single, sturdy hand-painted piece — no assembly, no fuss. Set it on a desk or shelf and it holds its happy pose, ready to collect and show off.

Few beetles are as striking as Janson’s long-arm beetle. Its body glimmers with iridescent green and gold, and the male’s front legs are extraordinarily long — nearly the length of its whole body — sweeping out like a pair of grappling arms.

Arms Almost as Long as Its Body

The male’s greatly elongated forelegs are its trademark, used to fend off rivals and hold on during mating — a bizarre and beautiful adaptation.

A Metallic Jewel

Its wing cases shine with a rich iridescent green flecked with gold, making it one of the most gorgeous beetles of the montane Asian forests.

A Protected Species

So prized that it is legally protected in China, Janson’s long-arm beetle is a treasure of its cloud-forest home — admired here safely in figure form.

Rare and Remarkable

Living high in cool mountain forests and seldom seen, this long-armed jewel is a genuine prize — rounded into a plump, glittering figure.

“A green-and-gold jewel with arms nearly as long as itself.”
