IN FLIGHT BEE GOLD – USA 7553NR100

Swarovski code numbers: 7553 100 000 / 7553 NR 100

This retired Swarovski crystal and gold bee was only available in the USA and Canada. It is one of 6 members of the “In Flight” group. The clear facetted crystal flower which makes up the base is identical on all 6 pieces, and is set with clear crystal stones. The entire In Flight set is retired and comprises gold and rhodium bees, gold and rhodium butterflies, and gold and rhodium hummingbirds. Items with gold metal animals have green crystal stones applied to them, while the rhodium ones have red crystals. It is believed that the 3 “feet” on the base of the flower can vary from piece to piece and have been noted in smooth, round moulded crystal or faceted.
