Jasmine

A stem of paper night-blooming Jasmine vine in a shallow shadow box. These beautiful white trumpet-shaped flowers are set off against a dark purple background. I have hand-written the latin name for this flower, Cestrum nocturnum, on heavy watercolour paper and mounted it in the box as well.

The painted wooden box is 6 x 9 inches and 3/4 of an inch deep. It is black on the outside and purple on the inside. There is hanging hardware on the back and it is signed. 

Each of my paper flowers is handmade with care and attention to detail. This sculpture is made from Italian crepe paper, wire, acrylic paint, and glue. Using high quality materials and careful techniques ensures that my flowers will last a long time. These flowers have also been sprayed with a UV protectant. I include care tips with each purchase. This unique shadow box would make a fun addition to a cabinet of curiosities, a bookshelf, or an art collection. I welcome custom orders for paper flowers; these shadowboxes make a wonderful, thoughtful gift.
