The Apiary Archive

$95.00

Step into the study of a 19th century naturalist. This piece features a Parthenos sylvia, commonly known as The Clipper, set against a rich parchment background of geometric honeycomb diagrams. The background is aged to a deep amber hue and contains meticulous handwritten notes that evoke the spirit of a Victorian field expedition.

The frame is a sturdy black shadowbox accented by four solid brass honeybee charms at every corner. These brass details bridge the gap between the butterfly specimen and the apiary theme of the artwork. This is a scholarly addition to any wall or shelf, providing a warm and intellectual glow to your collection.

Due to the intricate nature of this curation, this is a highly limited release of only 25 pieces. Each shadowbox is individually hand-numbered and serves as a rare artifact for the serious collector. Once these 25 units are claimed, this specific archival design will not be reproduced.

  • Elite Rarity: Strictly limited hand-numbered edition of 25.

  • Specimen: Parthenos sylvia (The Clipper), ethically sourced.

  • Display: Square black shadowbox with a warm sepia-toned backdrop.

  • Hardware: Four custom brass honeybee corner accents.

  • Art: Vintage-inspired honeycomb field notes with Latin inscriptions.
