These Great Yellow Bumblebee drop earrings in sterling silver feature cheerful bees in vivid enamel colourways, beautifully framed by polished silver wings. Each earring design measures approximately 10mm by 11mm.
Orkney is one of only a few places where the Great Yellow bumblebee can still be found, making it one of Britain's rarest species of bumblebee. As a result, the Bumblebee Conservation Trust is working on a project dedicated solely to saving this particular species.
Sheila Fleet has developed this special collection to closely resemble the markings of the Great Yellow bumblebee, with its distinctive yellow tail.
Note: Any measurements provided are approximate due to each piece being hand-finished.
