The Symbolic Collections
The Art of Symbolic Hand Embroidery
At Telling Roses we craft only original concepts inspired by mythology, art history, folklore, and the Victorian language of flowers.
Our drawings are entirely our own and become the base of our hand embroidered artworks.
We carefully select second-hand, vintage, or new garments to repurpose through our art— prioritizing premium vintage textiles and natural fabrics like organic cotton, linen, viscose, wool and silk.
By choosing one of our pieces, you wear sustainable art to wear and help keep the rich legacy of rose symbolism alive across centuries and cultures.
Every piece is individually hand embroidered and truly one of one.
14-day returns available within the EU.
