The "Alma Portuguesa" flower arrangement by José Saramago is a vibrant composition that celebrates the light and strength of our land. Inspired by the author's visceral connection to the Portuguese landscape, this design unites the sunny glow of sunflowers with the sculptural, bluish texture of Eryngium (our thistle), creating a contrast that evokes the horizon of the plains and the freshness of the Atlantic.
The balance of this Portuguese floral arrangement is achieved through the rustic delicacy of pompom chrysanthemums and pink daisies, which soften the strength of the main elements. Enveloped by the fragrance of eucalyptus, this arrangement is an authentic, deconstructed piece full of character. It's the perfect choice for those seeking a gift with a deep sense of belonging and an aesthetic that honors our roots.
Composition : Sunflowers, Eryngium (Blue Thistle), Chrysanthemum pompom, Daisies and Eucalyptus.
Style : Rustic-contemporary, vibrant and symbolic.
Ideal for : Giving as a gift to someone who loves Portugal, celebrating meaningful achievements, or decorating spaces with a piece that has "roots" and history.
