Sweetness Vase 37/8

One of the earliest Moorcroft Club designs by Sally Tuffin featured sweet peas, with a soft sage coloured background. With their delightful wisps and tendrils, sweet peas have made a lovely floral subject at Moorcroft ever since and so their reoccurrence was inevitable. In homage to Sally’s early design, Nicola has scattered a wild and unkempt cluster of the colourful annual flowers, with delicate tendrils tubelined in green, searching for supporting structures. Nicola has used a pure white background to her design and as a result her sweet peas appear brighter and more cheerful than its predecessor.
