The Botanical Coffin: Hand-Tied Floral Encapsulation

This exquisite curiosity captures the intersection of botanical life and archival preservation. Each piece features a bespoke, hand-tied floral arrangement—meticulously curated and secured by hand before being permanently preserved in a glass-like medium.

Item Specifications

• The Medium: A premium, high-gloss, pour-cast epoxy resin. This professional-grade medium is engineered for optical clarity, providing a crystal-clear, refractive finish that acts as a magnifying glass for the delicate botanicals within.

• The Artistry: Unlike standard loose-fill casts, these floral arrangements are hand-tied and manually arranged to ensure structural integrity and a cohesive, intentional composition.

• Housing: A hand-finished wood coffin frame in a deep matte black.

• Dimensions: Each coffin stands at 8" tall, 4.5" wide, and 2" deep.

• Quality: Every piece is a unique work of art; due to the hand-tied nature of the florals and the organic variation of the specimens, no two arrangements are identical.

Processing & Shipping Time:
