Glass Art - Anzac Red Poppy Stems (large)

The red poppy is a symbol of war remembrance all over the world. During WWI, the red poppy was one of the first plants to grow and bloom on battlefields in the Belgian region of Flanders, hence the poem, written by Lieutenant-Colonel John McCrae, "In Flanders fields".

Our new glass poppy stems are a special way to remember our Anzacs. Each petal has been made using various shades of transparent red and black Venetian glass, shaped using simple tools, to give them a soft and natural look. All flowers are made by hand, free-form (no molds used). The lampwork technique has been used to create them, including melting the glass with a hot torch, then kiln-firing to ensure strength and durability.

These large poppies are approximately 35mm x 40mm across. The stems are made from copper wire and measure 9cm long. Small flowers and vases are not included, but can be purchased separately.

Please note these flowers will take approximately 5 business days to make.

We guarantee the high quality of our mini flowers, but they are made of glass so please handle with care.
