Hello Board Friends! I've got this paperweight that I think represents a dung beetle. It measures 4 1/2" long. I'm trying to confirm what type of insect it is and perhaps the type of metal and the approximate date of production. It has no maker's mark. Could it be considered Egyptian Revival? Any help would be much appreciated. Thank you! Don
I'm afraid I don't know my beetles, but between the stripes and the "Viking horns", someone is sure to know what it is!
I don't know beetles..actually don't really like beetles...but I like yours !!! (sorry can't help!!!)
it's a scarab beetle.....with the wings protruding at the rear.....maybe bronze....and looks like a paperweight !
