Honeybee Balsa Ornament

Honeybees fly up to 15 mph and beat their wings 200 times per second or 12,000 beats per minute! They are the only insect that produces a food (honey) eaten by humans in significant quantity.

Made out of sustainably harvested balsa wood, these lightweight ornaments are hand-carved and then painted with non-toxic acrylic paint by a cooperative of skilled artisans on Isla Solentiname, Nicaragua. Approximate size: 5" x 2".
