“Roses do not bloom hurriedly; for beauty, like any masterpiece, takes time to blossom.” - Matshona Dhliwayo

This mauve pink rose and bud was sculpted based on a real life hybrid tea rose from my garden. Each rose petal was carefully handcrafted using a blend of vintage American and modern German crepe papers for the most lifelike effect. Stems and leaves are all wired using Japanese floral wires for the best shape and longevity. Leaves are individually cut from German crepe papers so that no two are alike!

A wire loop is in the back for hanging.

Signed.

Approx 10 x 7 x 3 inches

As all my paper sculptures are hand-cut each piece is unique.
