Framed Hand Embroidered Beaded Scarab Beetle

These curious creatures are hand embroidered on organic calico using golden threads and decorated with tiny brass and coloured glass beads. The frame is a hand made wooden box frame finished in 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!

A gentleman's cabinet of curiosities full of strange specimens and worldly objects must have been truly fascinating! Natural history collections are undoubtably very beautiful, inspired we have created our own archive of creatures ...but in a kind kind to nature, Sew Heart Felt way!

Please note the frames are intentionally not perfectly finished to give a rustic effect and might contain minor indents or marks
