Vintage Pirkenhammer Porcelain Bee Trinket Box- circa 1880
Amazing piece! All hand painted in tiny detail. The wing lid comes away to reveal the hidden hollow in the base for trinkets. Very geometric hand painted pattern to the wings. Never seen this in the 40 years of collecting bee items. Time to go to a new home to enjoy!
Base still has an vintage label, written on it, 'Pirkenhammer;. Embossed is F&M. There is no base stamp, only the embossed letters.

Sarah Monk- Honeycomb Disk- one off for The Hive- 1994
Heres some of her bio from her website-
"I make small batch slipware in my Herefordshire studio at Eastnor Pottery, near Ledbury. Designs, include a unique selection of bathroom and kitchen wares. My approach to potting is relaxed and playful, every piece is treated with an excitement and love of the material, I hope this translates through to the finished pieces.
Cups and bowls are wheel thrown, I slab build individual soap dishes and flower bricks and press-mould plates. Slips and colourful underglazes are brushed and splattered. Sgraffito designs are freely etched into the clay, making the pieces pleasingly tactile. All creating happens at the wet clay stage and I finish every piece with a simple lead-free glaze. Little pieces of art for your home, to use and cherish. I’ve been a selected professional member of the Craft Potters Assocition UK since 1994. My work is regularly exhibited at Contemporary Ceramics, Bloomsbury, London"
