Silk French Violet Rose and Baby’s Breath (Gypsophila) Potted Faux Flowers

Silk French Violet Rose and Baby’s Breath (Gypsophila) Potted Faux Flowers arrangement.

The Deep French Violet Rose symbolises Love, at first sight, emotional Love and the colour to show respect and honour for a loved one. The delicate hue has also been known to symbolize spiritual awareness and peace. These Deep French Violet coloured Roses are a perfect example of how two colour opposites can come together to create something truly beautiful. The warm hues of red blend perfectly with the cool hues of blue to create a balance that results in a luxurious and professional potted flower arrangement.
The Deep French Violet Rose additionally symbolises deep passion, mature romance, achievement, success and royalty.

Purple a closely associated colour with Violet was found on cave walls dating back to between 16,000 to 25,000 BC. The colour purple or the actual colour Tyrian purple was the sort after colouring for Kings, Queens, nobles, royals, priests and magistrates in the Mediterranean to as far as China.

In the Hebrew Bible (Old Testament); in the Book of Exodus, God instructs Moses to have the Israelites bring him an offering including cloth “Of blue, and purple, and scarlet,” to be used in the curtains of the Tabernacle and the garments of the priests. The term used for purple in the 4th-century Latin Vulgate version of the Bible passage is Purpura which, in turn, derives from the Greek word πορφύρα (Porphyra), or Tyrian purple. In the Iliad of Homer, the belt of Ajax is purple, and the tails of the horses of Trojan warriors are dipped in purple. In the Odyssey, the blankets on the wedding bed of Odysseus are purple.

 

Since the year 2000, Tyrian purple has been recreated, at great expense. When the German chemist Paul Friedander tried to recreate Tyrian purple in 2008, he needed twelve thousand molluscs to create 1.4 ounces of dye, enough to colour a handkerchief so going back to the year 2000, a gram of Tyrian purple made from ten thousand molluscs according to the original formula cost two thousand euros, or equivalent in Australian dollars would be close to three thousand dollars in today’s money.

The Rose is the most used and most popular flower you will see in cemeteries, and the purple rose is the rose used to show respect and honour for a loved one.

Each potted arrangement has a small amount of composite in the pot to add added weight to eliminate movement in windy conditions.

Product Composition:

Flowers and Bouquets comprise of silk fabric or soft cloth. Branch/Stems are injection plastic with a steel wire insert to enable rigidity to the plastic. The Flower petals and flowers are handmade and manually assembled therefore the size and colours will vary from flower to flower even if the same-coloured bouquet is purchased in several of the same product colours. For Product Sizing the measurements provided above are indicative and will vary since these flowers are all handmade and colours of petals are manually processed so not all are identically the same as natural flowers are not all identical.

Shipping Note:

If the Faux Flowers are distorted or squeezed during shipping, use a blow-dryer on low heat, low speed to remove any creases in the petals or leaves. The heat from the blow-dryer will help to reshape the flowers if not symmetrical. Flowers and branches can be reshaped with hand manipulation to your desired décor shape. Because these flowers are handmade, during air-shipping the flowers may fall away from the branch or stem. Simply re-attach any flower or leaf back onto the stem. If you have a hot glue gun handy you can secure the flower or leaf back on with hot glue for added security for when they are placed at the cemetery the flowers or leaves don’t get blown away in blustery windy conditions.
