Cecilia Bouquet is a rustic dried flower bouquet in natural, earthy tones — handcrafted in our Hampshire studio from slowly dried botanicals, with no dyes and no added colour. The palette is the natural result of the drying process: warm beiges, soft browns, and muted greens.
Rustic arrangements like Cecilia are built around the honest quality of the material rather than the impact of colour. The stems are chosen for their form and texture — the way grasses hold their shape when dried, the way seed heads catch light differently from different angles. The composition is deliberate but unhurried.
Cecilia belongs in farmhouse kitchens, natural interior spaces, and anywhere that values the plainspoken over the elaborate. It is a thoughtful gift for someone who finds most flower arrangements too busy — a person whose home already has the right things in the right places.
What’s Inside
Dried gypsophila in warm cream and ivory fills this bouquet with cloudlike softness, wrapped around a soft peach rose and burnt orange craspedia that glow at the centre. Silver-green eucalyptus cools the palette, while golden wheat, spiky safflower heads, and pale bunny tails layer in texture below. Tiny white daisies and papery winged everlasting blooms dot the arrangement with fine, delicate detail.

Care Tips
The dried stems carry a faint, earthy scent when you first unwrap them. Keep away from direct sunlight and moisture — a well-ventilated room suits them well. No water needed. Dust occasionally with a soft brush. With minimal care, these arrangements last for years.
