Limited Edition Goldwork Scarab Beetle with Crystals & Antique Wires
My first ever embroidery kit started off with a humble doodle of a scarab beetle. Fast forward one year since I sketched this doodle, I decide to replicate it into embroidery.
Stitched over 50 painstaking hours using several meters of individually cut metals wires and threads, beads, crystals and metallic wires. This scarab beetle involves some of the most advanced Goldwork techniques. Due to the minute size of the beetle, these techniques become even more time consuming and complex
Nevertheless, this piece was another labour of love.
Stitched on an organic cotton and set in a wood effect embroidery hoop
Dimensions of hoop : 7 x 5 inches
Please allow 2-3 weeks for me to complete stitching this piece
