Maomao Bellflowers Acrylic Stand – The Apothecary Diaries

Give Maomao a basket and an afternoon and she will come back with half a hillside. This Maomao acrylic stand shows the apothecary out gathering, a wicker basket on her back and violet-blue bellflowers all around her.

Maomao with bellflowers: acrylic stand

Maomao faces forward with both hands on the straps of a woven herb basket, in her green jacket, plum skirt and green shoes, hair tied up with a blue ribbon. Star-shaped bellflowers in deep violet-blue climb up one side of her and cluster at her feet, with a few green leaves between them. Herb gathering is where she is happiest, and knowing Maomao she cares less about the petals than about what the root might cure, or do to her bandaged left arm.

What you get

Next to something green

This one belongs beside a houseplant, a tea tin or a jar of dried herbs, where the flowers have company. It also brightens a desk more than the plainer standing poses of the same line, such as Maomao Reading. A present for the gardener, the tea drinker or the friend who can name every weed on a walk.
