Melipona Bee Ring
From the “Animal Totems" Collection
Guardian of Healing. Emissary of the Ancients.
Inspired by the Melipona bee, a stingless species native to the Yucatán Peninsula and revered by the Maya for centuries, this pendant honors the quiet labor of nature and the sacred wisdom it carries.
Known as Xunán Kab, “The Honored Lady Bee”; this bee was more than a pollinator. She was a healer, a symbol of community, and a spiritual messenger. The honey of the Melipona was considered medicinal and sacred, used in ceremonies, offerings, and rites of renewal. So important were these bees that the ancient Maya held up to six rituals a year in their name.
This piece is not only a tribute to biodiversity, it is a symbol of feminine power, ancestral healing, and the harmony between human life and the sacred cycles of nature.
