A royal collaboration revealed: Paleis het Loo, by John King

We are delighted and excited to announce a wonderful new collaboration between White Rabbit Gallery and the renowned Paleis Het Loo. On the occasion of the enchanting flower exhibition "Bloom" at the palace, our collection will be available in the palace's museum shop starting in May.

The collection, carefully curated from White Rabbit Gallery's 'Golden Spring' collection, is a tribute to the timeless beauty of flowers from nature and the rich heritage of Paleis Het Loo. Each piece is handcrafted by alchemist and glassblower John King and captures the essence of spring with delicate, lifelike daisies, daffodils, and honeybees, gilded with 24-carat gold.

What makes this collection so special is the enchanting realization that each piece has retained its natural core, which is plated with pure 24-karat gold. As a result, each piece is 100% unique and forms a symbolic tribute to nature.

We are proud that our honeybees come from responsible beekeepers in the lush landscapes of the Ashdown Woods in the United Kingdom. They all led happy lives and died naturally; not a single bee was harmed during the creation of our artwork. As advocates for environmental conservation, we support the Dutch Bee Foundation in their mission for a more bee-friendly planet. Our gilded honeybee pendants and pins act as ambassadors for their species and spark discussion about the crucial role of bees in our ecosystem.
