This unique and original small art vessel is inspired by Autumn coloured foliage. In particular a wonderful Chinese Tallow tree in my garden with its beautiful colours.
Leaf Bowl 2 is one of a series of 3 textile art vessels. Leaf Bowl 1 may be found instore here https://madeit.com.au/products/felted-wool-bowl-textile-art-vessel-leaf-bowl-1
The artist, a skilled fibre artist, has used the age old, labour intensive craft of wet felting using merino wool and silk to create a stunning piece of textile art that is both decorative and functional.
The vessel is made from 100% merino wool and silk fibres and features a rich palette of red, gold, orange, magenta and green.
After having created and shaped the vessel, I have then appliqued and embroidered more felt and fibres to the surface to create leaf and vines motifs around the bowl.
Size: Width - 11cm, Height - 11.5 cm, Diameter - 7 cm

This vase style art vessel could hold a spray of dried flowers or a small glass vase to hold fresh flowers, but it is also a work of art in its own right. It would be a beautiful addition to any home décor, and it would make a unique and thoughtful gift for any occasion.
Additional Information:
This vessel is one-of-a-kind and completely handmade.
It is made from high-quality wool felt that is soft to the touch and durable.
It is easy to care for and can be spot cleaned with a damp cloth.
I am inspired by the natural world, and I love to use my art to capture the beauty of nature. I am particularly drawn to the colors and textures of the Australian desert, flowers and the ocean, and I have tried to reflect this in my work.
I hope that my art will bring people joy and inspire them to appreciate the beauty of the natural world.
As wool felt is very light weight, a small polished stone has been placed inside the vessel to give it stability when standing.
Easily cared for.
Display away from direct sunlight.
Wipe with a dry cloth for dusting when necessary.
