Japanese paper flower lover Waremoko figurine Japanese paper interior Wildflowers/Autumn flower lover

*＊*A "Waremoko" ornament made from colored washi paper*＊* "Waremoko" is a cute plant with small red flowers that look like matchsticks. The deep red flower lover are gorgeous and beautiful, making it an autumn flower lover that is also used in flower arrangements. By coloring the Waremoko with various types of Japanese paper, I created a piece of art that recreates the vibrant appearance of the flower in bloom. The appearance of many small flowers gathered together is expressed by pasting small beads made by rolling finely torn Japanese paper between the fingertips. We also use several types of brown and green washi paper to color the soil in which the lilies grow. Even the fine details of the work are colored using the natural colors of the Japanese paper. For those who are usually too busy to take a walk in nature, we hope that by displaying these artworks in your home, you will be able to feel the breath of nature and spend a peaceful, enriching time. ------------------------------------------------------------------ About the work ●Materials: Japanese paper, stone powder clay, wire, varnish, resin, ceramic clay (only the tray) Size: Height 12cm x Width 8cm x Depth 7cm / Weight: 35g Finished with a water-resistant varnish. The adhesive between the flower lover and stem is attached with a strong adhesive and then reinforced with resin. It is designed not to come off easily, but if you pull it too hard, the adhesive may weaken. Please handle it gently when adjusting the bend of the wire. *The saucer is prone to breaking if subjected to impact such as being dropped. Please handle it with care, just like a ceramic plate. <Care Instructions> To remove dust, blow it off with a blower or wipe it gently with a soft cloth. ------------------------------------------------------------------ Made using a slightly unusual original recipe! This work was created using the technique of "pasting Japanese paper onto the surface of a molded object." The washi paper is torn by hand or cut with scissors and then carefully pasted down piece by piece... If you think of it as a "3D version of a washi paper collage," it might be easier to imagine how to color it. The colors of the works are not colored with paints or other materials, but are expressed using the color of the Japanese paper itself. Therefore, we have received many positive feedback from customers who have purchased our products. "Because it's made of washi paper, the colors are very delicate and gentle." "It's a color you won't find anywhere else." "It's very pleasing to the eye and soothing to look at." We have received positive feedback such as these, and our customers are able to experience for themselves the unique characteristics and good qualities of Japanese paper. Mizunoki's workshop has nearly 150 types of washi paper. From the many varieties of washi paper available, you may agonize over which color of washi paper will best suit your piece, but the joy you feel when you finally find the perfect color and say, "This is it!" is indescribable. I hope to incorporate this joy into my work and bring the gentle colors of washi paper to everyone. ------------------------------------------------------------------ ◇◆Points to note when purchasing◆◇ If you have any questions, concerns or requests, please feel free to contact us.
