People often spell it, "Preying Mantis," because it seems to make sense for a predatory insect. In fact, it is spelled "Praying Mantis" because its posture and the shape of its arms make it look as though it is in prayer.
Price is for a single 4x4 inch tile. Want the mantis to be smaller? This design is also available in 2"x2" and 3"x3" sizes. Tiles are approximately 1/2" thick on the edge.
