Neroli Hua (Inverse)
Chinese-inspired limited edition Neroli Hua floral illuminations are individually hand gilded with 24 kt gold or pure palladium, signed, numbered and ready for framing…..with a twist. The colors are digitally inverted from the original.
Each museum-quality illumination is made with bright archival water resistant inks on velvety smooth lightfast acid free pH neutral 100% α-cellulose German Etching paper by Hahnemühle who’s papers have been prized in European houses of nobility for centuries for their highest levels of craftsmanship and superb durability.
Only 500 Neroli Hua illuminations each of five sizes (including the inverse version) will be made from the original 18”x18” colored pencil and silver illumination of the same name. ~ Let the blessings exotic aromatics waft over you with this lush design inspired by a Chinese cloud pattern that reminded me of a flower. The word for “flower” in Mandarin is "Hua" and neroli is the fragrant oil made from the sun-kissed flowers of the bitter orange, known for alleviating stress and anxiety and made fashionable by a 17th century Italian princess. © BKS
