The blue background is created from hand-dyed wool blended with white angora, giving the surface a cozy, fuzzy texture that feels gentle and insulating. Rising from the crown is a vibrant, hand-dyed merino flower. It is bold, playful, and full of movement. This piece carries a tropical spirit into winter, reminding us that color itself can be a form of warmth.
