History
The Malia honeybee pendant was discovered at Chryssolakkos, of the Minoan Palace of Malia on the island of Crete, and is thought to date to c.1800 BC. The named Chryssolakkos means the “pit of gold” because of the precious objects that the farmers used to find there. The Minoan Palace is situated 3 km east of Malia town and is the third most significant known Minoan Palace after Knossos and Phaistos. This pendant is in the shape of two bees, or wasps, storing away a drop of honey in a comb and is one of the most famous exhibits in the Heraklion Museum.

Care For Your Jewels
When wearing
- Avoid contact with soaps, lotions and perfumes. Take your jewellery off when washing your hands, showering, or applying skincare, fragrance and make-up.
- Take your jewellery off before exercising.
- Put your jewellery on last, once you are fully dressed.
- Avoid swimming while wearing your jewellery.
When storing
Keep your pieces in an airtight space — the jewellery box that comes with every order is ideal. This protects them from humidity and airborne chemicals.
When cleaning
Use a soft cotton or fine-fibre cloth. Make sure it is completely dry and polish very gently. Avoid chemical cleaners.
Sterling silver darkens naturally over time. A gentle polish restores the shine.
