Description

At National Bee Supplies we pride ourselves in crafting the highest quality cedar beehives.  We are known internationally for creating the best and most beautiful quintessential WBC hive.   In fact we smile every time a customer or trade show visitor looks at the hive and can't help stroke the perfect joinery and sanded finish.  

We now feel its time to produce this WBC hive as an ornament, to be enjoyed by everyone in any outside or inside setting.

The hive comes in 5 parts.  The floor, 3 lifts and a gabled roof.  The parts come fully assembled and will be delivered within two large boxes.  You will need to put these 5 parts together with internal clips to join the 3 lifts.

There is no entrance at the floor, so this hive is unsuitable for keeping bees. Unlike our assembled Beehives this ornamental hive will not come with a 10-year Guarantee and may have small blemishes, and/or knots in the woodwork. 

There is storage space inside the hive, so could be adapted to house pond pumps  or even use to store your cool box 

The hive is made from Canadian Western Red Cedar, which is FSC-certified.  Known for its natural oils, this wood does not need painting.  However, the wood will naturally silver over time.  If you wish to keep the rich cedar colour we recommend painting your hive with translucent UV paint which you can buy on our site as a 750ml Tin (590494) Or we will do this in-house for you so you can put your hive straight outside. Just select the option that reads 'painted with UV Paint.'

The Gabled roof is made with two galvanised steel metal sheets, cedar ridge piece and sides.  The metalwork is lined with ply.  The front has a cone bee escape to give that perfect beehive look.
