History of My Hobby

Ganutell

Ganutell flower making consists of first and foremost twisting silver or gold plated thin wire with thread. Thin thread of various colours is used to produce different colour schemes. Soon after assembling the wire and thread, this is twisted over a slightly thicker silver/gold plated wire to produce petals. After creating a number of petals, these are assembled around a bead or pearl so that a flower is shaped. Different sizes are produced according to the sizes of the petals twisted. The petals can be made of different patterns. Besides, sequins, beads and small pearls could also be inserted within each petal to offer a richer looking flower.


After assembling a Ganutell flower arrangement, it is carefully placed in a vase. The flower arranger takes particular attention in setting up the Ganutell arrangement by fixing it sturdily to the inside base of the vase. Finally a glass dome is placed over the vase and arrangement to offer protection to the Ganutell flowers
