Nepali artisans have meticulously hand-crafted each element from premium New Zealand wool, creating a botanical treasure that brings perennial blush-toned beauty to any composition. The graceful arc of the vibrant green stem and pointed emerald leaves provide perfect contrast to the clustered twin blooms with their dimensional layered form. Perfect standing alone in antique vessels, paired with complementary felted botanicals, or incorporated into wedding tablescapes, this refined creation offers the poetic beauty of wild roses or cosmos in a form that endures beyond seasons. A beautiful intersection of artisanal craftsmanship and botanical inspiration, where nature's most romantic hue becomes preserved in wool's soft texture for year-round enjoyment in any thoughtfully composed space. ----- More to the Story ----- Each item is handmade of 100% wool from New Zealand through the ancient technique of felt making. By adding warm soapy water to wool and then pressing and rubbing, the fibers will tighten into a felted textile material. Gradually, as the fibers are tightening together, the items are shaped into their final form - flower, heart, bird, etc. Once it is dried, it is ready for its final embellishments. ----- About Fair Trade ----- These products are 100% Fair Trade certified by the World Fair Trade Organization and made by skilled Nepalese women.
