'David' Vintage 1950's Small Lacquered Holly Leaf Stems - 12 Stems
These are simply wonderful! Lacquered leaves are such a throw back to proper vintage millinery trims, and we are obsessed with their high shine, superb stiffness and glossy, gradient vibes. A classic holly leaf shape, these little leaves would be perfect accompanying some berries or simply on their own.
Labelled as made in 'Czecho-Slovakia' in the 1950's, each leaf is wired and can be used individually. You may find some light cracking on the leaves, but this is to be expected for something of this age. The lacquer has made these stick together a bit from being stored for over 70 years, so you may want to gently separate them with a butter knife or something similar as not to break them when separating.
Fully wired, this bundle contains 12 leaves.
Leaf measures: 3.5cm (1.4 inches)
Length of stem: 4.5cm (1.8 inches)
