Profit By Time
An exceptional hand carved intaglio featuring imagery of a beehive and bees with text ‘Profit by time’
Why we love it
If ever there were something that imbues the spirit of community, of working for the good of all, it’s a hive of bees. All those wing whirring, flower flitting, pollen collecting, busy, buzzy worker bees in their cute black and yellow stripes.
Each with their own job, their own talent. And with one common goal. To please the queen!
Yep, in the hive it’s the female who calls the shots, and we are so down with that.
Wear this in rebuke of today’s pervasive ‘everyone for themselves’ attitude. In recognition of the strength of community.
Musketeer the heck out of it. All for one!
