Full description

This is the Female Sandpit Blood Bee or Sphecodes pellucidus

She is made of needlefelted wool and stitched vintage thread and is built into this really beautiful antique rouge compact pot. She was made for the last FIFTY BEES and is three times actual size of the real bee.

I do have other bees left from the five exhibitions. Much of these have been shared via the FIFTY BEES Instagram page.

Please do get in touch if you see one that you’d like to give a home to.

Designed by Lydia Needle.
