The Magical Plants Set of Three
These are one of a kind handmade pieces.
I have always believed there is magic in the design of nature, and for those who have eyes to see it, it is everywhere around us. And as a former zoologist, I am passionate about the natural world – including the enormous richness that plant life confers on us. This set plays with the striking plants called Pitcher Plants, carnivorous plants which magically catch and eat insects using their modified leaves. The images are from the 19th century illustrator, Ernst Haeckel.
My passion for illustrations with the addition of images from medieval and roman art combines with my passion for nature and delivers a composition of magical plants with a strong suggestion of medieval statues through the addition of a mosaic from an ancient Roman villa.
The colours are muted and earthy and represent quiet understated luxury, with the sparkle of added antique jewellery.
