Model of a honey bee (Apis mellifera) in the highest quality, greatly enlarged

This model is a greatly enlarged but accurate reproduction of a honey bee ( Apis mellifera ).

The model is produced in SOMSO plastic by the manufacturer SOMSO, which is world-renowned for very high quality. This means quality materials, a sense of accuracy and longevity.

In other words: World-class craftsmanship.

The model shows the honey bee approximately 25 times normal size. It measures 15 x 47 x 50 cm

(L x W x H) and weighs 1.8 kg. On the model, one leg is movable so that the pollen basket (corbicula) can be seen with the "harvest" of pollen at the back. Furthermore, 3 other parts can be removed, so that deeper structures (internal organs) can be better seen. The model is delivered on a stand with a green plate at the bottom.

Anatomically, it shows a "worker" honey bee, which is a female bee with a pollen basket. The model shows its many characteristics and can, for example, be used to understand its function as a honey producer.
