In this lavishly illustrated book, Georg Ragnar Levi tells the fascinating story of how beaded flowers came to be loved and despised - and at one point in history even banned. So-called French beaded flowers were created in homes, convents, prisons, and workshops, and were used for ornamental and symbolic purposes at baptisms, weddings, and funerals. \u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThe author guides us through the history, techniques, materials, and personal stories behind the craft, showing how the demand for wreaths and bouquets in the early 1900s became the bread and butter of many families in Europe and made the glassworks of Murano and Bohemia prosper. \u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBilingual edition German \/ Italian\u003c\/strong\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eEditione bilingue – Tedesco\/Italiano\u003c\/strong\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eQuella dei fiori di perline è un’arte antica e straordinaria, di origine veneziana; una manualità che pareva perduta, ma che sopravvive nel tempo.
