Home Flower Set "Stellar Night"

This set brings together two flowers that speak the same blue — blue oxypetalum and delphinium, long fresh stems cut in the morning at our growers'. No vase comes with the order, no shape is arranged for you: this is a bundle to work with, not a finished bouquet — the stems arrive raw, waiting for you to trim them and choose their form yourself, at your own pace.

In a letter to his brother Theo in 1888, Van Gogh wrote: "For my part I know nothing with any certainty, but the sight of the stars makes me dream." That September, on the bank of the Rhône in Arles, a minute from his Yellow House on Place Lamartine, he set up his easel under a gas lamp and painted one of his great night canvases — the sky green-blue, the water royal blue, the Big Dipper visible above the town. The painting hangs today at the Musée d'Orsay in Paris. This set is a piece of that same blue, carried into your own room.

If one of the two flowers doesn't meet my standard on the day of the order, I substitute it with another — the blue palette and the character of the set remain intact.

A pair of floral shears and two vase models (Vase Pure Form, Vase Elegant Silhouette) are offered separately if you want everything in one delivery. Made to order, delivered in Paris at the time you book, Monday to Saturday.
