Stag Beetle in 5 x 7 Inch Black Frame (Slight Damage to Legs)

Each Bookish Bug features a real, ethically sourced and carefully preserved insect, hand pinned by Jess L. M. Anderson and displayed against a one of a kind background crafted from damaged or misprinted copies of my fantasy novels. Pages that could not be sold are transformed into miniature worlds, where torn chapters become landscapes and fragments of ink become atmosphere.

Every piece is layered with real dried florals and botanicals, thoughtfully arranged to complement each specimen. Select designs include natural crystals and organic elements that catch the light and add depth and texture.

No two are ever the same. Each arrangement is entirely unique, built from different passages, different plants, and different specimens. The result is part entomology, part book art, part relic from a story that refused to be discarded.

Details:
• Real preserved insect specimen
• Background created from damaged or misprinted pages of my fantasy novels
• Real dried florals and botanical elements
• Select pieces include natural crystals
• Hand assembled and one of a kind

These are for the readers who love a little wildness in their shelves.
