In the 19th century, Wilson “Snowflake” Bentley struggled to capture the fleeting wonder of snowflakes, successfully photographing the first in 1885 using a surface of black velvet. Though the methodology has improved since then, the awe for the snowflake’s exquisiteness remains.
Like those early photographs, our Snowflake suspends the crystalline, geometric perfection of what Bentley called “tiny miracles of beauty.”
This 100mm glass globe is set on a white square base that highlights the snowflakes contours and snow within the globe. More than a trinket, this is a classic ornament that will help you to remember your snow holiday memories for years to come.
Comes in a protective box so help you get it home undamaged.
