This vintage floral ceramic pomander was found at market, carefully cleaned, and gently refilled with freshly dried British lavender. Inside, you’ll find a handmade sachet of antique lace, tucked within to slowly release its calming scent over time.

Originally used to scent linens or dressing tables, this piece has been quietly reimagined, part of a continuing desire to rescue the old and forgotten and make them beautiful and usable again. Sustainability here is gentle and rooted in care: working with what exists, preserving character, and giving purpose back to objects with story.

The floral decal features blowsy pink roses, cornflowers, and violets in rich cottage tones. The back retains its original stopper and stamp, with light patina that speaks to its past.
