The design is inspired by the Trollius, also known as Globe Flower, which are herbaceous perennials that form a beautiful clump of palmately lobed leaves. These elegant plants produce erect stems that bear solitary, vibrant yellow flowers, resembling globose or bowl-shaped blooms. This stunning natural inspiration translates beautifully into our shawl design.
