Fortnum And Mason Beehives Take Up Residence On The Roof
Bees swarm at the entrance to the newly installed bee hives on the roof at Fortnum and Mason on July 22, 2008 in London. Each hive currently contains 4000 Carnolian bees from the Italian Alps. In this first season on the roof - they will produce 200-300 jars of Fortnum's London honey. Each of the 4 hives is an individual design painted in Fortnum's famous eau de nile colour fronted by a triumphal arch styled in Roman, Gothick, Chinese or Mughal design.
