This unicorn beetle is handcrafted from palm leaf. I spent over 6 hours weaving it and dyed it with coloring agents. The beetle is very lifelike, measuring 9*4 cm. You can pose its legs however you like. Palm leaf weaving is a traditional Chinese handicraft that dates back 3,000 years. The specialty of this craft lies in using palm leaves as the weaving material. Although the material is natural leaf, the works can be preserved for decades without any distortion. Dimensions — W: 12, L: 18, H: 10. Weight — 0.5 kg.
