~ Bronze Honeybee earrings- 10 bee friendly flowers planted with every purchase!~
Did you know that the buzzing sound which honeybees make is actually the result of their wings beating at approximtely 11,400 times per minute? Or that each colony of bees consists of around 20,000-60,000 honeybees? And despite all their hard work, the average bee will only make around 1/12th of a teaspoon of honey in their lifetime?
Did you know that 1 in 10 bee species across Europe now face extinction due to deoforestation, pesticides and climate change?
Honeybees are pretty amazing, but sadly their numbers are dropping massively. It is not only the bees which are under threat, but our precious food supplies and our beautiful plants. That's why for every pair of bee earrings, bee bracelet or bee necklace sold, ten bee friendly flowers will be planted! So with these earrings you can not only show your support, but know that you are part of the solution!
Hoops are 2cm in diameter, made from nickel, lead and cadmium free hypoallergenic metal
The bee charm is approximately 13mm from top to bottom (this is a hand measurement, so may not be 100% accurate!)
The bee charm is also available on earring hoops, or as a necklace or bracelet- please see my other listings for these alternatives.
