Every bas relief is handcrafted using natural gypsum plaster and real botanical specimens—wildflowers, rice branches, or British flora. Plants are pressed into wet plaster to capture intricate textures, veins, and details. The Cyprus collection uses coarse gypsum for bold volume, symbolizing endurance. The Japan collection features mirror-smooth finishes achieved through hours of rolling, reflecting fleeting beauty. Each piece is one-of-a-kind, carrying the artist's touch and the spirit of its region.

The Cyprus collection celebrates resilience and vitality—bright Mediterranean flora that survives extreme heat and blooms vividly in winter. The Japan collection captures evanescence and subtlety—delicate blossoms and autumn leaves rendered in sleek, minimalist plaster honoring Japanese aesthetics. The UK collection embodies reserved elegance—modest British wildflowers framed with quiet strength, symbolizing enduring traditions. Each work is an emotional tribute to place, nature, and cultural identity.

Consider the mood you want to create. For living rooms, choose bold, textured pieces like the Cyprus collection to add energy and visual interest. Bedrooms benefit from calming designs—the Japan collection's delicate flora promotes tranquility. Match your existing color palette: neutral interiors pair beautifully with organic gypsum tones. Our intimate 30x30cm pieces work perfectly as accent art in any room. Trust your emotional response and choose what resonates.

Caring for your bas relief is simple. Dust regularly with a soft, dry cloth or gentle brush to prevent buildup. Avoid water, harsh chemicals, or abrasive cleaners, as gypsum is porous and absorbs moisture. For deeper cleaning, lightly dampen a cloth, gently wipe, then dry immediately. Keep artwork away from humidity and extreme temperatures (ideal range: -20°C to +40°C). With minimal care, your bas relief will remain beautiful for generations.

Bas reliefs are designed for indoor use only and should not be placed outdoors or in consistently humid environments like saunas or unventilated bathrooms. Gypsum plaster can be damaged by prolonged moisture, rain, or extreme weather. However, they work beautifully in well-ventilated bathrooms, kitchens, and living spaces. Ensure good airflow using exhaust fans or open windows to prevent mold and preserve the artwork's integrity and delicate textures.
