This one is built from things that were forgotten.
The base began as the platform of a candle holder, flipped upside down and welded into a solid foundation. From it rises a simple steel rod stem.
The petals and curling tendrils came from a neglected herb rack from a friend — its horseshoe rings and scrollwork dismantled and reimagined into a flower. At the center, a reclaimed brass valve became the heart of the bloom.
Nothing here was bought new. Everything here was saved, transformed, and made permanent.
Priced to find a home, not a warehouse.
