Another nice vase, about 45cm across and our take on a low dome with greens and whites. A mixed dome is a fiddly thing to do on several levels, and this one took an awful long time to get right!
804
Here’s a wild one, probably over a metre tall and deliberately random with lots of trailing bits – the client wanted the ‘went into the garden and plonked it in a vase look’. It works really nicely to break the formality of the Louis something-or-other table and mirror.
803
A splash of colour. We do a lot of these low domes, normally with hydrangeas or peonies, and occasionally with roses – but as a word of warning, the smaller the flower head, the more they cost! The bowl makes a big difference, this is the clients’ own, about 40cm across - and looked like solid silver…
802
This is fun, staying with green and white, and a bare minimum of leaf and flower types in a large low sphere, maybe 60cm across. It’ll look fresh and interesting long after you’ve tired of more structured arrangements.
801
Here’s a nicely textured table or reception centrepiece that defines what we like – it stands around 80cm tall and is about the same across. It’s slightly flattened so it can be used close to a wall, and follows our core principle for arrangements ‘if it looks right, it is right’!
800
This is another of the humungous Big Bonsai, a bit like #777 but built to go tall rather than wide. It’s a good 180cm in the planter, and can be made in the red acer as well. There’s one of those in the showroom at the time of writing, but we don’t seem to have a picture of it – but it’s a real statement piece!
785
A cool mix of things here, papyrus on the left, and marram grass on the right, with a sort of half-bonsai at around 120cm tall just off-centre in the middle. We spent a long time on the spacing! The bowls work nicely to tie it all together, and they’re all on a raised section at the end of a swimming pool, again with nice lighting specified by the architect.
784
The phrase ‘full perm, eight from 10’ probably doesn’t mean a lot these days, but it did when football pools were all the rage. In a tenuous link, this tree uses the podocarpus leaves from #777, attached to the dark trunk of #775. It’s pretty spiky low down, so not really suitable for a house with small children.
783
This probably belongs in the ‘large trees’ section as well as it’s around four metres tall, but the interesting part (for us, anyway…) is that we’ve grafted the upper sections onto a dead olive trunk so it’s really chunky at the base. This is in an hotel in Shoreditch, and why the top of the tree isn’t in shot is a mystery.
782
One of our classic 80cm (-ish, they vary) classic hand-built bonsai, this time using our miniature Acer leaf, which also comes in green. The trunk is made from bits of ancient vines that have gone past their wine-producing prime, and which we season for years. These are pretty popular items which often end up in a study or a boardroom, so we normally have a few ready-to-go.
