Customer Reviews

A book for lorists

This is a book dedicated to the flower business.The authordetails his own experiences, observations and personal view about howto buy and sell flowers.The basic idea is to use the best and unsual flowers to create occasional arrangements.The book presents some chapters about natural flower arrangemnts.It is presented the Madderlake style, maybe a mix of English and French style.. It is not a book for beginners.The book is quite philosophical and should be read with attention.If you love flower arrangements, I recommend:Ikebana Expressions by Akane Teshigahara.
