Women's Blue Honey Bee Brooch

Honey Bee Collection - collaboration with The British Museum Gold Plated Brass Set with Lab Grown Opal & Cubic Zirconia & Aquamarine In ancient Greek mythology, it is told that after Zeus was born, he lived in a cave on the island of Crete in Greece, nurtured and raised by the Melissae, the divine beings of bees. As he grew older, Zeus bestowed upon humanity the honey produced by the bees, making it the food of the gods. From then on, bees were revered as sacred creatures by the ancient Greeks and were hailed as the deities of the people's collective spirit. Avoid unpleasant encounters We recommend that you remove your jewellery before any activity that may damage it, such as sport, swimming pool or beach, but also housekeeping or gardening. Beware of shocks, which cause marks and scratches of varying depth. Similarly, several pieces of jewellery worn or stored in contact with each other may scratch or catch one another. Protect it from harmful products Cosmetic products can alter certain organic materials such as pearls or porous stones. This is why we advise you to wait about ten minutes after applying cosmetics and perfumes before putting your jewellery on. To preserve the appearance of your jewellery, protect it from corrosive and chemical products such as salt water and bleach. If it does come into contact with one of these products, carefully rinse your jewellery with clear water and dry it with a soft cloth. Give it the right conditions to make it last When you are not wearing it, store it in its original box or in individual pouches to protect your jewellery from humidity and extreme heat. Colour: blue
