A Life's Work - Glass Pendant Filled with a Single Drop of Real Honey
Over its entire lifetime (around 6 weeks), a single worker honeybee produces only about 1/12th of a teaspoon of honey after pollinating thousands upon thousands of flowers. It's an unimaginable amount of effort mixed with countless stories of adventure and peril that only a honeybee could tell. That single drop of honey represents their entire life's work. It might seem insignificant, but when combined with the efforts of its fellow honeybees, this contribution not only helps to feed its colony, it's also crucial to maintaining our food supply and bringing balance to the entire ecosystem as well. Each and every honeybee is vital.
Well, now you can celebrate the efforts of hardworking honeybees and be reflective of your own contributions to the world when you wear this cool new A Life's Work pendant from glass artist Madeline Shir. This thought-provoking necklace consists of a handblown glass pendant holding a fully encased, single drop of real honey hanging from a stainless steel chain. The honey inside will flow and move naturally as temperatures fluctuate and should last... forever!
I'm not sure if the honeybee who helped make this necklace would have wanted their life's work to go into a necklace, but if it helps others realize the importance of the honeybees and how they need to be saved and protected... that single honeybee may have saved the entire world. 🐝🍯
