Wooden Wild Flowers
Wood Wildflowers is a collaboration between father and son, Ted and Nathaniel Nienow. All of the work they produce is based on their love of nature. Their flower designs begin with extensive photographic research. They choose a flower to model based on color, shape, and simple elegance. Once they have decided on a flower, art meets engineering. Making wood flow into smooth, delicate curves to mimic flowers in nature can be a difficult task. The many discarded prototypes lining their shop walls are proof of that.
Recreating wild flowers in wood is a process of selective simplification. The Nienows try to key in on the most distinct characteristics of a flower (often developing new production techniques as they go) and build up levels of detail until they’re satisfied they have an elegant and accurate yet reproducible representation of nature.
We've just received beautiful vases filled with their unique wooden wild flowers in both table and wall varieties. Absolutely stunning in any home!
