Leaf Carving Art
Preserve your most precious memories on a piece of natural leaf.
ideaPOT Leaf Carving Art is a refreshing artform to connect nature with your memories. Architecture, wildlife, festivals, tradition, motto... can all be inscribed on this unconventional art material. If you are looking for something original, unique, and innovative, this is an unmissable item for your collection.
Every leaf has a story to tell
The most attractive feature of our Leaf Carving Art is that the complex venation is left perfectly intact after carving, creating a translucent texture just like dragonfly wings.
​
Another charm of this art is the sentimental sepia tone, evocative of nostalgic antique photos. It is intense in some areas and soft in others. The transition brings out a very romantic and dreamy effect.
To best display the Leaf Carving Art, we specifically designed a solid wooden frame for it. The feature of slim edges harmonizes with the elegant style of our artwork. Currently, there are options of dark walnut and white ash. Each colour goes well with the craftwork of different patterns.
The Details
Our Leaf Carving Art, as light as a feather, as supple as silk, soundlessly records the blissful moment of your life and the glorious scenery of this planet.
After thorough trimming, strands of vascular tissue stand out. They function as transporting channels for food and water. It's amazing to observe this intricate system, and it looks even more magical when shining a light through it.
Tiny imperfections can be found on each leaf, such as creases and small damage. But it doesn't affect the whole look. On the contrary, it adds the beauty of nature to this artwork.
Craft Process
From a fallen leaf to a piece of art, the crafting process takes a lot of patience and attention to details.
-
Collecting leaves: we chose Platanus leaves fallen in early autumn when they are still tender.
-
Rinsing: rinse the leaves with freshwater as early as possible after they fall off.
-
Soaking: treat the leaves with a specially made solution to make them flexible and durable.
-
Airing: dry up the leaves.
-
Preliminary trim: whittle the surface of the leaf to make it flat and ready to be carved.
-
Carving: burin, brushes, and needles are to be used now for such delicate work.
