Blackthorn I

Pressed Irish Blackthorn - finely detailed photographs of real blackthorn blossoms, carefully gathered, pressed, and arranged before being photographed and printed on archival fine-art paper.

This striking spring bloom is one of the first signs of the Irish hedgerow awakening after winter.

Blackthorn is a plant of contrasts: delicate white flowers bursting directly from dark, thorny branches. In Irish folklore, it has long symbolised protection and resilience.

The sight of blackthorn blossoms is often linked with early spring walks, when hedgerows are still bare but suddenly alive with scattered, papery white stars.

Framed in oak or unframed, it’s a timeless piece of Irish nature for your home or as a meaningful gift.
