Miner's Lettuce Bronze Mini Bud Vase | Real Leaves, Raised in Bronze — FTF_1026
This one is for the dreamer who thinks frogs and fairies live on the hillside.
Miner's lettuce is scattered all over our hillsides, tiny lily pads with a flower at the center. Many people call it a weed. It's a pretty one. A real leaf was rolled into mold compound, so the lettuce stands raised above the surface... preserved in bronze.
A lily pad for a frog. A landing spot for a fairy. Add a fresh stem or a few dried ones, and let it catch your eye from across the room. You'll smile.
This small bronze bud vase by Jester Swink is one of a kind, handmade in the Santa Cruz Mountains of California and part of the From the Fire small batch releases that come out every 4 to 6 weeks. The miner's lettuce grows right next to the studio.
