Botanical Paperweight
Botanical Paperweight
These exquisite paperweights preserves the fleeting head of a flower or seedhead in a crystal clear sphere to allow the delicate specimens to be admired from all angles.
Nestled in the Margam Forest of South Wales, for over 50 years Hafod Grange have been embedding flowers and seedheads gathered from their garden and surrounding countryside into polyester resin: a material that has the look of molten glass with none of its specimen-destroying properties. The resin is infused with a UV filter to prevent fading.
A variety of botanical paperweights can add interest to any table setting. Place these intriguing objects in amongst jars or bottles of flowers and flickering tea lights on the dining table, or simply on their own as a beautiful ornament.
Because of the nature of the product, each paperweight is an original work of art, with no two being identical, making it an ideal gift and collectable.
