Common Carter bumblebee brooch

The intricate detail of this fascinating insect is captured in this brooch. The natural mellow colors of this insect naturally blend into any style. This beautiful embroidered and hand-painted brooch closely resembles the real bee and is a unique additional to any outfit. The brooch is crafted in pale, soft fleece with ginger and black detail to create the real life texture of the Bumblebee.

This stylish Bumblebee brooch has a three-dimensional look and makes modish statement pinned to a lapel, scarf or hat. It’s also a conversation piece in the home - why not attach one, or several, to cushions, curtains, even a lampshade? This is versatile gift for any nature lover.

This bumble bee is based on the Common Carder Bee. It is commonly found in gardens, woods, on heaths and on farmland and is an important pollinator.

The bee brooch measures 4.5cm x 6cm and is presented in a 9cm-square gift box with information about the Bumblebee.

Due to the hand-crafted nature of the brooch, some very slight variations may occur. It is quite flexible and robust and some bending of the wings is natural during wear. The wings can easily be reshaped by hand, either by flattening or by squeezing the top wings together to enhance the three-dimensional look. To keep the brooch in good condition, avoid submerging in water and subjecting to high temperatures or prolonged periods of direct sunlight.
