Dandelion Paperweight - Small

Originally crafted in 1968 by Barry Needham as therapeutic work during his battle with muscular dystrophy, these exquisite paperweights have been meticulously handmade by Hafod Grange for over five decades.

Dandelion (Taraxacum officinale) is a versatile plant valued for its various uses: its roots can be dried and ground to make coffee, its leaves enhance salads, its blossoms are used in wine production, and both leaves and roots have medicinal properties. This paperweight exemplifies meticulous craftsmanship, earning the prestigious Tarian Label from the Design Council. In the U.K.

Renowned for exceptional craftsmanship, Hafod Grange was honored with the Prince of Wales Shield in 1975, personally presented by HRH Prince Charles, recognizing their dedication to preserving floral beauty in resin.
