Queen Bee Brooch or Ornament, Knit Wool Bee with Silk Crown Lapel Pin

The queen bee is the heart of the honeybee colony. Honor the Queen Bee in your life with this sweet one-of-a-kind brooch. If you prefer for this to be an ornament, let me know and I'll omit the clasp and attach an ornament loop instead.

Hand-knit with merino wool and stuffed with hypo-allergenic fiberfill (or cleaned and carded wool roving, per request) this brooch is a perfect gift item for Mother's Day, wedding parties or any other occasion. The Queen Bee brooch is topped with a hand sewn silk dupioni crown in a lovely iridescent pink color (last two pictures are of a red crowned queen bee). A 1-inch (2.5cm) silver brooch pin is secured to the back.


Please Note: You may not receive the exact same brooch but ones that looks pretty darn close (same dimensions, fiber, colors, and irresistible style). Each bee is one-of-a-kind and they insist on having unique expressions.
