Incredibly realistic, the Porcelain Flowers by talented artist Vladimir Kanevsky are glorious sculptures depicting genuine species of blossoming plants.
Always have a bunch of your favorite flowers in full bloom as decoration in your home without worrying about pruning or watering them. These delicate porcelain versions are as beautiful as the real thing, if not more so because of their perfectly shaped petals and full foliage. Some of the sculptures also incorporate little butterflies sitting daintily amongst the blooms. Inspired by still life paintings from the 17th and 18th centuries, the artist renders all different types of potted plants including chrysanthemums and hyacinths that he paints himself, adding a little insect bite here and there for a more genuine effect.
The Porcelain Flowers by Vladimir Kanevsky will last a lifetime.
