Melissae, the oracular Bee Nymphs of ancient Greece. The Melissae are considered divine messengers, conduits for prophecy, speakers of divine truths, and a source for inspired thought and song.
This whimsical piece is reminiscent of the connection between the practical, magical and mystical. In one way it's a tangible and practical creation. You can hold it in your hand, see it and smell it. On the other hand, it's made of beeswax-a magical substance in its own right *this is not a candle* and it reminds us of the magic of honeybees!
