Parchment Roses

Multi-layered and super-elaborate decorative pieces that can be used in the sound holes of harpsichords, mandolins, lutes and baroque guitars.

These designs are either based on original roses used in various instruments or they are new designs I have made myself. The designs are made using modern technology allowing an extraordinary degree of precision and detail.

They are cut from archive quality hand made paper, and assembled by hand. The roses can be plain or gilded with 24 carat gold.

Other sizes can be cut on request and commissions for new designs would be welcome so please email me to discuss.
