New insect pieces
Weaver ant with grub. Weaver ants construct their nests by gluing together leaves with the aid of their larvae that they gently squeeze to allow the release of a sticky silky glue. They're not stupid, these ants! Sterling silver, bronze, 18k yellow gold.
Bee on hive cell with honey. Sterling silver, bronze, yellow sapphire.
Honey bee on flower. Sterling silver, bronze.
