Lovely Rose SO47 has an almost geometric neatness. Rather than a few large petals, it is assembled from many short, folded pieces of sola, each creased along its length and set in close rings so the flower forms a firm, rounded disc.
The folded petals give the surface a faceted look, with small flat planes and sharp edges catching light in a regular rhythm. At the centre, the folds tighten into a small, rolled spiral. The pith is natural ivory with the occasional fine fleck typical of the material.
Its compact, even shape makes SO47 easy to use in repeat patterns: lining a wreath, filling a flower box, covering a frame or topping a series of diffuser bottles where every flower should look consistent. It is also sturdy enough for garlands and hanging décor.
Floral Mongers supplies this handmade sola rose to florists, décor brands and exporters, graded by size and available natural or dyed on request.

Natural variation
Each petal is folded by hand, so the number of rings, the crispness of the creases and the overall diameter vary a little from rose to rose; natural flecks and slight shade differences in the pith are normal. These are natural characteristics of handmade and botanical products, not defects; shade, size and grade are confirmed on sample approval.
Care & storage
- Store in a cool, dry place; sola pith takes up moisture from humid air
- Keep out of prolonged direct sunlight to limit gradual yellowing of the ivory pith
- Handle by the sides; the folded petal edges can split if pressed hard
- Dust gently with a soft brush or a hair-dryer on a cool setting
- Diffuser or fragrance oil can be applied; test one piece first, as oil may darken the pith
- Unpack promptly on arrival and let the pieces air in a dry room; avoid storing in sealed, humid packaging
