Lot Highlights
Description: This exceptionally rare preserved dandelion, encased in a stunning glass cloche standing 43 cm tall with a diameter of 25 cm, captures the delicate beauty of one of nature’s most fleeting wonders. Weighing just 15 grams, the dandelion inside is not only preserved but meticulously reconstructed, making it a unique masterpiece of both natural elegance and human craftsmanship. What sets this piece apart is the super-secret preservation technique employed by a specialist, resulting in a display that is as ethereal as it is enduring.
Rarity and Value: The rarity of this preserved dandelion lies not only in the fragility of the flower itself but in the extraordinary preservation process. Dandelions are notoriously difficult to preserve due to their light, airy structure, which is easily disrupted once the bloom begins to form. This specimen, preserved before it fully blossomed, is an exceptional find. Few have mastered the art of preserving dandelions in such perfect condition, making this piece a valuable addition to any collection of botanical curiosities or natural history artifacts.
Discovery: The process of collecting the dandelion is as delicate as the flower itself. Harvested from an undisclosed location at the precise moment before it blooms, the dandelion was expertly chosen for its perfect form and potential for preservation. The timing of the collection is critical—too early, and the flower is incomplete; too late, and the structure is too fragile to maintain. Once harvested, the flower undergoes a detailed dissection and reconstruction process, ensuring that every petal and seed remains intact, even as time stands still for this fragile beauty.
Human Touch: What truly transforms this dandelion into a masterpiece is the human touch behind its preservation. The specialist used a unique, labor-intensive technique to dissect the flower, then painstakingly reassemble it petal by petal. This process required immense skill and precision, ensuring that the dandelion remains suspended in time, as if it could float away at any moment. The glass cloche that houses the dandelion not only protects it but also enhances its natural elegance, turning a fleeting moment into an eternal work of art.
This preserved dandelion in a glass cloche is more than just a decorative item—it is a symbol of the harmonious blend between nature’s ephemeral beauty and human ingenuity. Its rarity, coupled with the craftsmanship behind its preservation, makes it a timeless treasure for any collector who appreciates the beauty of nature, frozen in time for all to admire.
