{"product_id":"little-blue-hepatica-copper-flower-sculpture","title":"Little Blue Hepatica - Copper Flower Sculpture","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe Little Blue Hepatica is a hand-painted copper flower sculpture that captures the delicate, star-shaped form of this early spring bloom in a refined, smaller scale. Each petal is carefully shaped and painted by hand in the Milan atelier of Elisabetta and Carolina Sonzini, where traditional craftsmanship is expressed through a considered botanical lens.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCreated using tôle peinte, an 18th-century French technique of painting on metal, the piece reveals subtle depth and tonal variation through its hand-applied finish. The pale blue petals and soft centre bring a sense of lightness and delicate detail to the form.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMounted on a simple black wooden base, the Little Blue Hepatica is designed as a sculptural object - bringing a fresh, understated presence to a console, mantel, or interior setting. A lasting bloom, it reflects a thoughtful approach to material and craftsmanship.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMeasures approximately 19cm tall\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eComposition: copper, hand painted, with black wooden stand.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHandmade in Milan, Italy\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eThis item requires special handling due to its size or fragility.

Once the desired plant or flower has been created in copper, it is painted using a French technique from the 1700s, 'tôle peinte'. It takes a full day to create the smallest pieces, and much longer for anything bigger.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Erbavoglio Milano","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49374613668148,"sku":"little-blue-hepatica---copper-flower-sculpture","price":189.95,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0116\/2602\/files\/Little_Blue_Hepatica_ProductNov102082.jpg?v=1794366700","url":"https:\/\/tessuti.myshopify.com\/products\/little-blue-hepatica-copper-flower-sculpture","provider":"Tessuti","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
