Own a Piece of British Music History: Royal Albert Hall and Victoria Eggs Launch Limited-Edition “Bees at the Hall” Roof Slate Coasters

The Royal Albert Hall and British designer Victoria Eggs are proud to unveil a truly unique collaboration: the Bees at the Hall Roof Slate Coasters, hand-finished in Wales and crafted entirely from the Hall’s original roof slate.

Each limited-edition coaster offers a rare opportunity to own a genuine piece of the Royal Albert Hall, a British cultural icon that has housed generations of world-renowned artists, musicians, and performers. 


The slate, carefully reclaimed during essential restoration works, has been transformed by Welsh slate specialists Slate House into a timeless keepsake of craftsmanship, design, and heritage. Laser-etched with Victoria’s Bees at the Hall illustration which was inspired by the real beehives that thrive on the roof of the Royal Albert Hall in their custom-made hives.


Each piece celebrates the Hall’s commitment to sustainability and biodiversity in the heart of London. Every coaster is part of a limited run of just 1,600 - clearly marked to reflect its place in this exclusive edition, making it a meaningful collector’s item for design lovers and music fans alike. Perfect as a conversation starter or a thoughtful gift, this coaster celebrates British craftsmanship at its finest.

“This collaboration captures everything we stand for; craftsmanship, heritage, meaning and sustainability,” says Victoria Eggs. “We’ve taken a material that has sheltered generations of incredible performances and transformed it into something new and meaningful, while keeping its story alive.”


Every stage of the making process honours the circular economy: historic slate that might have gone to landfill has instead been up-cycled into a functional, beautiful piece of design. The coasters are cut, polished, and laser-engraved by skilled craftspeople in Wales, ensuring minimal environmental impact and zero waste.

“Each piece connects people directly to the building’s living story - a story that continues to evolve.” 


The Royal Albert Hall Bees at the Hall Roof Slate Coasters are part of the larger Bees at the Hall collection sold exclusively through the Royal Albert Hall shop and online; shop.royalalberthall.com/collections/bees-at-the-hall
