Description

Gerri’s interest in clay begins with possibilities.  The medium of clay is as old as the earth itself, and it can turn into whatever you imagine it to be.  Inspired by a friend who suggested she make flowers, she has created a series of flowers to honour her friends and family.  The yellow daffodil symbolizes rebirth and new beginnings.  Hand crafted, each daffodil will slightly vary in colour, size, weight, and style.

Care & Use: It is top heavy. Please handle it delicately by the base of the flower.  The ceramic flower is on a flower wire and is bendable.  However, the flowers are fragile therefore please handle with care.

Material: Ceramic
