Handmade Roses
Two distinct materials, one form. Metal roses are cut and shaped by hand from thin sheet metal — copper, brass or pewter — in untarnished or natural verdigris finish. Paper roses are folded entirely from genuine book pages and antique banknotes. Every rose is handmade individually, so no two are exactly alike.

Frequently asked questions
- What is the difference between the metal and paper roses?
- Metal roses are cut and shaped from sheet metal in copper, brass or pewter. Paper roses are entirely folded from genuine book pages or vintage banknotes, with no metal content.
- Will my rose look exactly like the photo?
- Each rose is handmade individually, so slight variation from the photos is normal and part of the handmade character.
- Can I request a rose from a specific book?
- In many cases, yes. Get in touch with the title you have in mind and we will confirm whether we can source it for a commission.
