Because Dr. Doolittle was one of my sister Leslie’s favorite characters growing up, I immediately identified this lovely necklace as a Luna Moth. You can find it in the serene small booth of Nancy Edwards at the new Urbanspace Meatpacking Market. Nancy’s collection features several species of moths as necklaces, rings, and teensy charms.
