This golden bumblebee—wings veined like stained glass, abdomen banded in amber—rests beneath sparkling clear glass that gently magnifies every delicate line. Each coaster is meticulously handcrafted by Ben Busko in New York City using the time-honored French art of découpage: the artwork is laid in reverse, sealed with fine varnishes, and burnished until it glows as if lit from within. Designed to serve as beautifully as it looks, the round glass has a subtle raised rim to keep drips at bay and drinks steady, while a soft black felt backing protects your favorite table or bar cart. It’s a love letter to beekeepers and their tireless workers—the quiet alchemists that turn wildflower into honey and gardens into heaven. Set it out for a nightcap, stack a hive of them for cocktail hour, or gift one to the friend who always stops to watch the bees. Practical polish, timeless charm, and a little celebration of nature’s most elegant pollinator in every sip. Style #: RCI-3657
