A chunky rose and sand porcelain block vase with a beautifully delicate porcelain garden flower stem.
Each piece is made one at a time and no two pieces are the same. I take great pleasure in taking the time to finish each piece to a high standard and include discreet design details.
The wire can be manipulated to position the flowers as you wish. The porcelain flower isn't attached to the vase- she can be moved around to your liking through a hole put into the centre of the vase up to approx half way down. The hole is big enough for other flower stems to be added, including seasonal dried flower stems.
PLEASE NOTE these flower stems are shorter than the individual flower stems. This is so the sit at a nice height in the vase.
The vase is approx. 8x3.5x3.5cm
Rose and Sand Block Vase with Garden Flower
Flower Stem Wire
The nichrome wire discolours during the firing process giving a lovely dark colour, rather than the shiny silver finish before firing.
The wire is 1mm in diameter and approx. 12cm long.
You can cut the wire to the size of your liking using jewellery wire cutters.
The wire can be manipuled to position your flowers as desired and is incredibly durable.

Star Flower Head approx. 4x4x3cm

Please note each flower is made indevidually and all will look slightly different, there will also be slight colour variations. This is also the case for the vases and is the beauty of buying handmade.
