Wolffia

Exceptionally petite floral clips set with marcasite. Fine details. Subtle glow, as marcasite tends to provide.

Origins likely to remain a mystery. No metal or maker's signature. Patent pending the only clue, or lack thereof. 

Wolffia globosa (water meal) is the smallest flower on planet earth. Free of roots it floats in dense clusters across the surface of ponds, mashes and lakes.* Chock full of nutrients its also a food source.**

Back to the clips. Very good vintage condition. Minor to no signs of wear. Sturdy backings.

Would enjoy an opportunity to float through the world with you. Possibly for the first time.
