Description
The Semporna is a single artificial stock stem in dusky pink, a soft mauve shade, with a tall spike of ruffled blooms crowning a slender green stem. Broad, lobed leaves branch out just beneath the flowers, so the stem has a natural, open shape rather than looking like a bare spike. It is made from plastic, stands 60cm tall and measures 16cm across at its widest, which gives it the height to rise well clear of a tall vase while staying slim enough for a narrow bud vase. At 0.03KG it is featherlight, so even a small, light vase will hold it upright without tipping.
This is decor for indoors, and it suits a hallway console, a mantelpiece, a dressing table or a kitchen shelf equally well. We like a stem on its own in a bud vase as a quiet, upright accent; several together fill a larger vase with a column of muted pink that sits happily against white walls, soft greys and natural wood. Because it is artificial, it needs no water and no weekly replacing, which makes it a sensible choice for a guest room, a holiday let or anywhere fresh flowers would otherwise go unattended. It also lends height to an arrangement of other faux stems and greenery.
Each bloom is built from layered, ruffled petals mottled with deeper pink, and the green leaves are deeply cut and veined, so the stem holds up to a close look on a side table. The shade is a mauve that reads as a dusky, slightly smoky pink, and it pairs well with cream, sage and dark green. There are no settings and nothing to assemble: lift it out, stand it in a vase and it is ready. Plastic shrugs off the odd knock, and a soft, dry brush lifts away any dust that settles.
