The Forbidden Forest Chair
A 1920's armchair has been transformed & refurbished. Silver birch trees with their stunning ghost like bark. A silvery silk full moon shines down on the scene. Mr Hare gazes up at the moon.
Winter's coming. Silk leaves in various shades of Autumn float down and mingle with snowflakes. A tiny mouse shivers and watches the leaves fall. A bear blunders out of the trees and blows a snowflake off his nose. Opposite the bear, a spider weaves his magical silvery web.
Definitely a one off design.
