The wings and honey are cast polyester resin. the body segments come apart and the bee is attached to the honeycomb by a threaded rod brazed to the abdomen. It can hang flat on a wall but looks nice if its floating off a little bit so light can shine through. The honeycomb is about 30 inches wide.  Great Sculpture

That's a wonderful concept and the detail on the bee is amazing. I wonder what this would look hung in front of a clear glass door. Great work there. I love it. My husband and I

I love it. My husband and I are beekeepers so I totally appreciate a piece like this. It is hard to find bee art where the bee actually looks nice. You did a great job and it would be something that I would buy for myself or as a gift! In fact, I found it because I am looking for a metal bee that I could hang on the outside of my house and I am not having any luck. |

Beautiful! I love the idea of floating it off the wall. Lin
