Framed Hand Embroidered Beaded Fat Beetle

These curious creatures are hand embroidered on organic calico using golden threads and decorated with tiny brass and coloured glass beads.

The handmade wooden box frame is finished in an aged matte black.

Hundreds of tiny glass beads and intricate layers of sequins applied with tremendous skill...and patience...map out the colours and patterns of the super shiny beetle.

Padded from behind this forms the plum domed body of the creature it is then mounted in a box frame with a fun archivist Latin description denoting the genus of the beastie on the reverse!
