Metallic paint turns the simple bell cup into a festive accent. The rounded cup and its stick are both finished in warm gold, and the pod’s natural surface texture shows through as a fine crackle pattern that catches the light unevenly, giving a softly antiqued rather than mirror-flat shine. Inside the open rim, the darker natural interior remains visible.
The gold stems are a quick way to add richness to an arrangement without heavy decoration. A few cups lift a white or ivory wedding bouquet, while larger clusters suit Christmas, Diwali and New Year displays, hotel reception vases and premium gift packaging. They combine well with bleached grasses, sola flowers and dark foliage.
Floral Mongers paints and packs the stems in India, with care taken to protect the finish from rubbing in transit. A white-finished bell cup on stick is listed separately in our range, and other metallic shades such as silver or copper can be discussed for seasonal collections.

Natural variation
The painted finish is applied by hand, so shine and coverage vary slightly, and the natural texture of each pod shows through differently. Cup size and roundness also vary naturally. These are natural characteristics of handmade and botanical products, not defects; shade, size and grade are confirmed on sample approval.
Care & storage
- Handle by the stick to avoid rubbing off the paint
- Store in a dry place, separated with tissue
- Avoid humidity and direct water contact
- Dust with a soft, dry brush only
