Sola Tile - Skeleton Leaf

A skeleton leaf leaves only the veins of the leaf. You can see through it to the other side, so you can carry it around and enjoy the colours of the sky and other plants. Each leaf is lined with tubes that carry nutrients and water, and each plant has its own characteristics. We invite you to take the time to observe the veins of this leaf and see what characteristics they have. dimensions width: 5cm length: 5cm height: 1cm weight: 45g Acrylic Resin / Botanical.

The Sola Philosophy 3.8 billion years have passed since the first single life began on Earth. Later, this life evolved into flowers, fruit and seeds, maintained in life cycles that continued for millions upon millions of generations. The colours and materials each have their own unique purposes. These intriguing shapes have formed unpretentiously for each functional purpose by the hand of Mother Nature. By observing a small plant carefully, we are able to glimpse a more perfect world. We express the name “Sola” with the Chinese kanji 宙, which means “universe.” This kanji explains everything we know and don’t know, including time and space, with a single character. Sola also has another meaning: “blue sky.” An imaginary world spreads out like the sky before us. See all our Sola products and accessories.
