A little more about the sculptures:
A parasitic plant known as a mistletoe plant grows on a host tree, in this case a Chinaberry (Jempinis) tree, and produces parasite wood. It is a mushroom-like growth that embeds itself into the tree's bark and feeds on the sap. A parasite-infested host tree will produce parasite wood as a sort of defence mechanism.
These distinctive plants are commonly referred to as "wood roses." These growths are so solid and dense that even when the tree rots away and dies, they remain intact. This particular species of wood was used to create these exquisite, one-of-a-kind parasitic carvings.
Previously, this wood was solely used for firewood, but today, it is used to produce splendid works of art. In order to determine what organism should be "liberated" from the wood, the shape of the branch is considered. When the branch is the optimal size and shape, it is removed from the tree, dried, and carved into the final piece.

Uniqueness
Each sculpture is carved entirely by hand from rare parasite wood, making every piece truly one of a kind. The bees and flowers are shaped by the wood’s natural contours, so the final form is guided by the material itself rather than a fixed pattern.
Once a sculpture is completed, it can never be replicated or recreated. The exact shape, grain, and natural markings of the wood exist only in this single piece.
Natural variations in form, color, and texture are an essential part of the sculpture’s character and authenticity. Images are representative, and the sculpture you receive will not look exactly the same as the photo, but will be equally unique and crafted to the same standard of quality and care.

Material and Craftsmanship
Parasite wood forms when a mistletoe-type plant grows on a host tree, in this case a Chinaberry (Jempinis) tree. As a natural defense response, the tree produces dense, sculptural growths commonly known as wood roses.
These formations are exceptionally solid and durable, remaining intact even after the host tree decays. Once used primarily as firewood, this rare wood is now valued for creating distinctive, one-of-a-kind carvings.
Each branch is carefully selected for its natural shape, dried, and hand-carved to reveal three bees interacting with blooming flowers. The final design is guided by the wood itself, ensuring no two sculptures are ever the same.
Care Instructions
Clean gently with water and a soft cloth. Avoid prolonged exposure to moisture or direct sunlight.
Perfect For
Home or office decor, shelf styling, tabletop displays, and collectibles. A thoughtful gift for birthdays, housewarmings, weddings, holidays, or nature lovers.
