The Printing Office Botanical Collection was created from foraging natural materials around the Greenfield Village Mill Pond in late summer, then printing with real flowers, leaves, and grasses on our etching press to create new, experimental images. The resulting designs are reminiscent of dried bouquets, and are turned into photopolymer plates that the artisans print onto fabric or paper.
The Mill Pond Tea Towel was created from a bouquet of seeded fountain grass, gathered from outside the Loragner Gristmill in Liberty Craft Works. The flowers and leaves are laid on a plate of gold ink and pressed onto paper to create the design, then made into plates to print the design on the edge of our tea towels using the same golden ink.
Dims: 15.5 x 36".
