One of my favorite desert flowers that naturalizes and spreads each year, providing habitat and food for our local pollinators.

This flower is composed of dark burgundy petals with swirly yellow tips with a textured green/tan and dark brown stalk. Finished with decorative soldering techniques to give some added texture and interest. Mostly semi-opaque but will glow in natural light.

Composed of colored sheet glass, copper foil, leaded solder, tinned copper wire, and silver jack chain.

Dimensions: 7.75 x 7.25 x 0.25 inches
