Steel water lily on a leaf

This is a steel version of the beautiful and graceful water lily (lotus flower) found in the ponds of large houses and stately homes. The water lily has a delicate flower with many layered petals. Each of these metals has been carefully shaped to create the stunning flower.

Water lilys only have a flower for a short time in nature, but this one will flower forever.

The water lily or lotus flower is associated with patience, purity, enlightenment and rebirth or regeneration.

This is the gift for anyone with a birthday in July.

The water lily is 19cm (7 1/2 inches) long, 16cm (6 1/4 inches) wide and 4cm   (1 1/2 inches) high.

The steel has been coated with two coats of clear lacquer to protect the metal.
