Powerful, prehistoric, and almost sculptural in its presence, the Atlas Beetle (Chalcosoma atlas) looks more like a piece of natural armor than a living insect. Its dramatic horns — sweeping, branched, and built for battle — make it one of the most awe-inspiring beetles in the world, and one of the largest in Asia.
In this hands-on workshop, you'll learn how to prepare and mount this magnificent beetle, preserving its robust form and the striking horn structures that have made it legendary among collectors. We'll talk about how and why male Atlas Beetles develop such remarkable horns, their place in the rainforests of Southeast Asia, and their long history as objects of fascination and admiration.
Expect a calm, detail-oriented experience with plenty of guidance and interesting facts along the way. You'll leave with a professionally mounted Atlas Beetle — and an extraordinary, conversation-stopping specimen to call your own.
✨ All supplies included
✨ No experience needed
✨ Just bring your curiosity (and an appreciation for nature's architects)
Space is limited — don't miss your chance to work with one of the insect world's most impressive giants.
