Decorative gold frame with a bee illustration on a white background
$394.99 USD
Description

 

Featuring a captivating yellow carpenter bee specimen preserved within an elegant French Art Nouveau gilt-edged frame dating to the late 1800s. The composition incorporates approximately two carats of premium natural gemstones—white topaz, fire opal, smoke quartz, and pyrite—creating a luminous backdrop for the insect.

The carpenter bee's nomenclature reflects its remarkable excavation capabilities; Xylocopa, derived from ancient Greek, denotes "wood-cutter," referencing the species' propensity to tunnel through dense substrates including seasoned wood and bamboo for reproductive purposes.

Every piece comes with a signed certificate of authenticity.
