Beaded king protea
Beaded king protea
South Africa's iconic flower, the proud and utterly wild protea is captured sublimely in simple beads. The long stem of green beads leads up to pink-hued flower with touches of red and the inside cone in contrasting white shades. This will make a stunning addition to any dining room or coffee table. The protea is 50cm long.
