Papercut Shield Bug | Entomology | Paper sculpture | retailer Stink Bug | Framed Wall Art | Paper Cut Insect | Entomology Without Death | Beetle

A handcrafted papercut sculpture of the iconic shield bug (Palomena prasina). I carefully crafted this delicate 6-layer paper bug in my small studio in Wales. It has been mounted, framed and ready to display on your wall or tabletop as soon as it arrives by post. This is the perfect sustainable gift for anyone with a love for nature, entomology or insects.

• 6-layer papercut sculpture
• Box frame ready to display (tabletop or wall mount)
• Insect dimensions: 6cm x 7cm x 1cm
• Frame dimensions: 13cm x 18cm x 3cm
• 250gsm museum-quality card
• 2 layer wings: 80gsm tracing paper

I created this piece as part of a wider entomology collection of papercut insects, with the aim of celebrating the “little things that run the world”. I will include a postcard bundle showing the making process behind the scenes.

PLEASE NOTE: The insect that you purchase is handmade and may vary slightly from the photos in the original listing. retailer
