Pressed wildflower frames hanging on a plaster wall

Handcrafted Botanical Art

Nature, Preserved.

Each frame is a quiet study in stillness — wildflowers gathered, pressed, and arranged by hand. Bring the calm of a sun-drenched atelier into your home.

Meet the Founder

Clara Mosswood

Every stem that passes through my hands is a small act of preservation. I work slowly — drying, pressing, and arranging botanicals the way generations did before me, letting the seasons set the pace rather than the clock.

Fernwood Press began as a quiet corner of my home, hung with drying flowers and lined with linen. Today it remains rooted in the same belief: that craft made with patience carries a warmth no shortcut can replicate.

The Process

From field to frame

01

Forage

We gather wild stems and seasonal blooms by hand from meadows and hedgerows.

02

Press & Dry

Each specimen is pressed between linen sheets and slowly dried to hold its color.

03

Arrange

Petals and stems are composed by hand into quiet, balanced botanical studies.

04

Frame & Finish

Sealed in glass and solid wood, each piece is signed and ready to hang.

Kind Words
