Anywhere red clover is planted, it improves its environment. It is a major food source for bees, it fixes nitrogen levels in the soil to meet the needs of a following crop, and its deep root systems help to prevent soil erosion.

A cluster of red clover shown in full bloom: from its rich pink flowers and distinctive leaves, down to the roots (where so much of clover’s good work is done). As a surprise, yours might arrive with a 4-leaf clover for a bit of extra luck!

This is a handmade item. The leaves, blossoms and roots are all made with handpainted crepe paper, and wired for shape and longevity.

It is displayed on a wood frame painted in a shade reminiscent of old roses, acting as beautifully complimentary backdrop to highlight every botanical detail. The edges of the frame are painted with a lustrous gold wax, and it hangs simply on the wall with a keyhole on the back. Each piece comes signed with a gold wax seal on the reverse, embossed with the Golden Age logo.

dimensions: 6.5” wide x 10” tall

This piece is archival, but is recommended to be displayed away from direct sunlight to keep the colours from fading.
