About Lydia's Bees
The First Bee
Christopher Evans designed his first honey bee pendant in 2017 for Lydia.
Lydia is passionate about wildlife and is particularly fond of honey bees, admiring their unique beauty and their boundless team spirit.
Her parents wanted something special for her birthday, so Chris set to work on the original Lydia’s bee pendant.

The Range
Christopher Evans loved the pendant so much that he decided to craft a whole range of bee jewellery in a variety of sizes and finishes.
The original range featured silver, silver & gold plated, and silver & rose gold plated honeybees in pendants, bracelets and rings. Two styles of earring shortly followed.
Stockists across the UK began snapping up the range for their jewellery shops.
