Our homes are striving to return to nature in the recent months interior trends. We too have jumped on the outdoor bandwagon by carefully cultivating a collection of natural elements for our customers to enjoy. Here are some of our favorite collections and the story behind what makes them one of nature's best gifts.
Petrified Wood is a fossil in which the organic remains have been replaced by minerals in the slow process of being replaced with stone. In general, the fallen plants get buried in an environment free of oxygen, which preserves the original plant structure and general appearance. This process could occur in less than one thousand years. The beauty of these petrified wood pieces is extraordinary. Each piece is unique and make a great addition to any table top, desk, or shelf.
Acorns play an important role in the forest when oaks are the dominant species or are plentiful. Wildlife which eat acorns as an important part of their diets include birds, such as jays, some ducks and several species of woodpeckers. Also many mammals, such as the famous squirrel. Though found in abundance they most recently have become popular in the craft field and have begun to make their way into interior design.
African Knob is the name behind this beautiful dried branch. Its thin stem and knob like tip make it a great decorative element for any vase or arrangement.
There are approximately 12,000 species of moss. Its texture and diverse colors have captured our hearts and it makes a great filler for terrariums and interior gardens.
The Ata fruit or Sugar Apple is native to India and other warm climates. The fruit is sweet, white to light yellow, and resembles and tastes like custard. When dried these Ata pods attain a robust color and texture that is extremely beautiful. They make a great visual element to any vase or table top.
