Felted Flat Leaf Stem | Mint

This refreshing Felted Flat Leaf Stem in cool mint green brings the essence of early summer gardens to any arrangement. Nepali artisans have meticulously hand-crafted each oval leaf from premium New Zealand wool, creating a botanical element that infuses spaces with tranquil vibrancy. The graceful curve of the stem and balanced placement of each leaf captures nature's elegant simplicity while the delicate mint hue evokes the crisp freshness of new growth.

Perfect nestled among mixed felted botanicals, displayed in minimalist vessels, or incorporated into seasonal tablescapes, this refined stem offers enduring botanical beauty without the fleeting nature of live foliage. A beautiful intersection of artisanal craftsmanship and natural inspiration, where summer's most soothing shade becomes preserved in wool's gentle texture for year-round enjoyment in any decorative setting.

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.
