Variegated Tulip - Copper Flower Sculpture

The Variegated Tulip is a hand-painted copper flower sculpture that captures the flame-like patterning of this striking bloom, pointed petals streaked in yellow, red, and cream around a soft green centre. Each petal is carefully shaped and painted by hand in the Milan atelier of Elisabetta and Carolina Sonzini, where traditional craftsmanship is expressed through a refined botanical lens.

Created using tôle peinte, an 18th-century French technique of painting on metal, the piece reveals subtle depth and tonal variation through its hand-applied finish. Dark maroon stamens rise from the centre, while narrow grass-like leaves trace the length of the stem.

Mounted on a simple black wooden base, the Variegated Tulip is designed as a sculptural object - bringing colour and presence to a console, mantel, or interior setting. A lasting bloom, it reflects a thoughtful approach to material and craftsmanship.
