    I bought this at a well known Flea Market in Ottawa Ontario. It was a great find. It has a place for a light on the back of the Bee. I lost the cord for this. It is pretty when lit up.

      LadyDakota, Beautiful. :-)

      Here's a very similar one (but it doesn't sound like it's wired for electricity):

      *snip*

      Beautiful large bee, made of cast iron and glass.
      The size is no less than 36.5 cm wide, 24 cm long and 16.5 cm high.

      The bee is in good condition with some age traces (paint inside glass).

      A very decorative and detailed design for home or garden can be hung or placed as desired. Inside has the holder for a tealight.

      Oh how I need something like that for my 'rust garden'... <LOLOL>

      Shouldn't be a problem to get its lightbulb/cord fixed...hope you'll update us if you ever get around to doing that! :-) :-) :-)
