This beautiful dried wreath is made using a page Willow frame, which measures approximately 60cms. To make this beautiful wreath it has taken over 14 bunches of sage and 3 bunches of Lavender and sprigs of Rosemary.
This beautiful Dried Wreath has an incredible scent, with a mix of lavender, sage and sprigs of dried Rosemary.
During the 16-17 centuries, herb bouquets would be made to mask smells and to given as tokens of love and remembrance, these were known as Nosegays, later in the Victorian Era they were called Tussie - Mussies. Deborah has adapted this into a wreath.
Sage & Lavender have been associated with protection & wisdom with Rosemary being about Remembrance.
Scent, herbology, folklore are very important in the work of Deborah-Maire, who draws on her ancestry and uses of herbs and healing with in her family bloodline to inspire her work.
Size & Care
Approximate dimensions:
Large, 45-65cm.
Dried Sage - Grown in the U.K. Kent & Sheffield, Yorkshire
Lavender - Yorkshire, Sussex, Kent
Rosemary - South & North Yorkshire
The flowers are air dried and the Wreath is handmade by Deborah-Máire. The wreath base will either be grape or willow or other grown wood, like Buddleia or Forsythia that has been seasoned. All sustainably sourced and handmade. The flowers are bound by wire, to prevent loosening over time that can come with hemp string.
The Dried Wreath may look slightly different to the one photographed, due to the drying process, & types of flowers, pigments can vary.
Your flowers will arrive, wrapped in acid free tissue paper & recycled brown paper used to pad out your delivery. Occasionally I will use bubble wrap which again has been recycled from previous deliveries to me.
Upon receiving your dried flowers or wreath, open carefully. Occasionally your flower bouquets will arrive a little flat from being packed in a box for postal reasons. Gently tease them apart and cut the string if you wish and arrange in a vase.
Very occasionally damage can occur in postage as dried flowers are difficult to post and are fragile. If that happens please get in touch through hello@deborahmarie.uk
Care: Try to keep your flowers and wreaths out of direct sunlight as the direct light can bleach pigments over time. Keep them in a dry spot, ideally away from areas that may get damp or attract condensation, like bathrooms & kitchens.
To clean your flowers gently blow on them or dust with a large clean makeup brush, as its soft bristles won’t damage your flowers. Although I would avoid using this with daisies.
