Sakura Styling with the Cherry Blossom
Cherry blossom designs are very popular in homeware, driven by their aesthetic appeal and cultural symbolism of beauty and renewal. They are incorporated into modern homes through various items like wall art, textiles, and accent pieces, and can be used for both minimalistic and bold styles. Interest in these designs is growing, with a trend towards using them to create tranquil and elegant spaces. Here are some ideas for you to bring the cherry blossom into your own living spaces:
Orientally Japanese
Displaying smaller cherry blossom trees with intricate flowers gives the space a peaceful vibe. The Blossoming Tree Figurine and the Japanese Tree Pots Figurine are pieces that highlights Lladró's handcrafted porcelain flowers crafted petal by petal.
An ornamental Lladró Japanese fan sculpture with detailed cherry blossoms and irises can be a flexible decoration to be displayed on a stand or mounted on a wall.
Classical
For a classical style, Lladró's idyllic animal figurines with cherry blossom accents add more emotion like with Doves on a Cherry Tree Figurine and Blossoms for the Kitten Figurine.
Combining two of Lladró's expertise - elegant woman figurines and their handmade flowers - led to the creation of Sweet Scent of Blossoms, a limited edition piece that features the pastel shades they are known for and enamel finishes to achieve that stylised wood effect.
Minimalism
The warm glow of textured matt-white porcelain highlights the cherry blossom branch motive in the Lladró Cherry Blossom Dome Lamp.
Clear crystal is another way to achieve a minimalist and subtle look with cherry blossoms like with Lalique's Sakura Vases or Fleur de Cerisier Vase.
Unexpected
Darth Vader and cherry blossoms? Not exactly the combination you would expect anywhere, but a special Lladró limited edition release of the Darth Vader Sculpture features a completely glossy white sculpture embellished with cherry blossom branches and flowers on the inner and outer cloak. It even comes with a pink lightsaber and a motive of Mount Fuji at the back. It is now sold out globally.
