BUYING & CARE

Working with dried-look florals

Four things worth knowing before you buy.

Are these real dried flowers?

No — every piece here is made to hold the faded, papery colour of dried flowers, without the material behind it ever having been a living stem. That means no shedding, no crumbling, and none of the mould risk that comes with anything organic in a damp room.

Do the colours fade over time?

Yes, in direct sun, and nothing sold as UV-proof is genuinely permanent indoors. The muted palette here hides it for longer than a bright flower would, but once colour has gone there is no bringing it back. Away from a south-facing window, expect years rather than months.

How do you style them so they don’t look too neat?

Uneven height does most of the work — real dried arrangements are never one length. Pull a few stems higher than the rest, let one or two lean out past the rim, and turn the fullest heads to face slightly different directions before you call it done.

How do you clean them?

A soft brush or a hairdryer on cold from about thirty centimetres for a whole arrangement. Because there is no real dried material to damage, these can also take a barely damp cloth on the sturdier stems — just avoid soaking any bound or glued sections.

The range

Three ways to use dried

Dried flowers hold a room through the months when nothing is in season. These are the three forms they come in.

  • Dried Flower BouquetsTied and finished, in the muted palette dried flowers actually go. For a vase you want filled once and then left alone.
  • Dried Flower StemsSingle stems to build with — pampas, seed heads, grasses, bare branches. Buy several of one thing rather than one of several.
  • Wreaths & Wall DecorThe only pieces here that never go in water or a vase. A door, a bare wall, or above a mantel where a vase would be in the way.
