Snowdrop (Galanthus nivalis) - Floral Desk Light #2
$40.00 Sold Out
This hand-made desk light contains one preserved specimen of Snowdrop (Galanthus nivalis), preserved in a solid obelisk-shaped prism of resin, underlit by a warm LED light embedded into the resin itself, and finally mounted within a base made of 3D printed wood PLA - a mixture of plant-based, biodegradable plastic and Poplar wood pulp. When turned on, the warm light bounces subtly off of the natural colors of the floral specimen and refracts through the obelisk shape to create a slight prism effect.
A native of Europe, the iconic nodding white lily-like flower of the Snowdrop is perhaps best known for being one of the first flowers to bloom in the late winter and early spring, forming carpets of delicate white flowers that sometimes bloom through snowfall, hence it's name.
The light measures approximately 102mm tall from tip to base and about 43mm wide at the base (4" by 1 11/16"). It is powered by two replaceable #CR2032 batteries and can be powered on and off via a twisting switch under the base. For your convenience, your order will include a replacement set of batteries.
The specimen has been dried thoroughly and coated in a UV resistant finish prior to being embedded in epoxy resin. The cap and findings are made of sturdy stainless steel.
The package will be carefully hand wrapped in bubble wrap, then wrapped with tissue paper and twine.
