The red, white, and dark green palette evokes the richness of flowers, leaves, and the natural world.  Silk threads bring softness and depth to the intricate needle lace, while the contrasting colors create a lively yet timeless presence. Hand-created in needle lace, the piece is inspired by the Anatolian “Oya” tradition of transforming thread, color, and intricate stitches into wearable expressions of beauty, memory, and cultural heritage.
