Synopsis
For the ancient Egyptians the beetle symbolized life, rebirth, and immortality, and for centuries, artisans have used the scarab motif to adorn everything from textiles and jewelry to the tombs of kings. This definitive collection of beetle-themed designs offers instructions for using the 17th century art of raised stumpwork embroidery, the metallic threads of goldwork, and glittering beadwork to create lifelike designs. Hundreds of color and black-and-white illustrations will teach embroiderers all about the craft: tools and equipment needed, special beading techniques, creating dimensional designs with appliqué, mounting their images, and more., For the ancient Egyptians the beetle symbolized life, rebirth, and immortality, and for centuries, artisans have used the scarab motif to adorn everything from textiles and jewelry to the tombs of kings.

    The book arrived in good condition and was what the seller listed it as, product and condition wise. Shipping was slow, but that’s expected when you live in Alaska and the seller communicated with me very well throughout the process. I recommend this seller! Also, a word for the product itself, if you’re looking for reliable information on healthy eating, Nourishing Traditions will not disappoint! Also check out the “companion” Weston A. Price foundation website for so many helpful articles.

    I was pleasantly surprised to receive the book I'd ordered in a box that was the proper size (instead of jammed into an envelope). Inside the box, the book was even wrapped in butcher paper. It was in excellent condition, as described. I appreciate the seller's thoughtful packaging and very quick shipping. Thank you!

    Thank you! I am a book lover, and I cannot abide by books arriving in PLASTIC with zero padding! So, all of my books are shipped in cardboard. We must respect our books :) Thank you for taking the time to note that, it's much appreciated!
