Oh man, how beautiful are these Woodbees from UK artist Lunabee and Swiss artist Pepe Hiller (of Smallstuff Studios)!?! Each hand carved wooden bees were created by Pepe in Switzerland and then shipped over to Lunabee to be painted in her unique style. Ten Woodbees were created in all, 9 smaller worker bees (2.5” in length) and one large queen bee (3.5" in length).
The Blot can’t truly express how much I love this release. Pepe’s woodworking skills are amazing, and each Woodbee really comes alive after Lunabee has worked her magic with them. Sadly, these will be the only wood bees ever created. This is truly a one off collaboration (with no future series planned), so if you ever want to get your hands on one of these wooden delights you’d better do it when they are released this Thursday!
These Lunabee x Pepe Hiller Woodbees will be released in two waves: the first 5 worker bees go on sale this Thursday, May 10th, at 7pm London time at Lunabee’s online store. The remaining 4 worker bees and the queen bee go on sale Thursday, May 17th, at the same time and the same place. Each worker bee will retail for $99 each, while the queen bee will sell for $149.
