Crafted entirely from natural leaves and plant fibers, this vintage collage tells the quiet story of grace and devotion a woman in traditional dress, flute in hand, accompanied by a crane among bamboo. Each detail the soft curve of her robe, the glint of green in the leaves, the golden wing mid-motion is cut and arranged from real foliage, pressed and sealed under glass.
These leaf artworks were made in China during the mid-20th century as meditations on the harmony between human and nature. Over time, the organic materials take on their own subtle patina, deepening the warmth and texture of the scene.
Framed in its original black frame with a gold inner edge, this 9” x 11” piece carries both cultural history and living energy a whisper of patience, artistry, and reverence for the natural world.
Place it where sunlight can find it, and it will seem to breathe with the changing day.
