Dandelion paperweight, 1968
Dandelion paperweight by B&A Needham for Hafod Grange.
A complete seed head captured in perfect symmetry before a gust of wind disperses the seeds. Clear polyester resin containing a UV filter is used to stop fading and to embed the botanical specimens without destroying them, as molten glass would.
The globe shape allows the specimen to be seen in its beauty from all angles, creating a crystal clear effect.
Each specimen is hand-picked, then dried using a range of techniques designed to preserve their natural beauty. Next, they are cast in clear resin and then individually turned and polished to a superb finish. 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.
Available in large and small sizes.
Made in Wales, UK.
