About Acrylate Resin Casting
As with amber, insects and other curiosities can be preserved in acrylic resin for generations. The process typically involves pouring acrylic into a mold with the dried plant on a slightly solidified gel. The specimen is then pressurized in the mold to remove bubbles before being slowly heated to stabilize the acrylic bonds. Finally, the specimen is shaped and buffed to remove any surface markings, creating a vibrant representative of a favorite plant that never wilts or fades.
Materials: Acrylic resin, strawflower
Dimensions: 1.57" L x 1.57" W x 1.57" H
Care: Polish occasionally with a soft cloth

How to Use: To prepare matcha, pour boiling water into the tea bowl and allow to cool slightly. Add ceremonial-grade matcha using a bamboo ladle. Using a chasen (bamboo whisk), whisk vigorously in an "M" shape until the matcha reaches a creamy froth. Sip directly from the bowl. For best results, use ceremonial-grade matcha, a bamboo ladle, and an 80- or 100-tip chasen.
Materials: Clay, food-safe glaze
Dimensions: 4.5" D x 3" H; 16 fl oz
