🐞Vtg Sloe Fairy Print Vintage Gold Brass Filigree Frame Wall Art Signed 8.5x5”

The Blackthorn tree (Prunus spinosa) produces bright white flowers in March on entirely bare branches. By autumn, those flowers have transformed into sloes—which are small, bitter, deep-purple wild plums. Barker cleverly mirrored this natural cycle in the character's design: • The Costume: The fairy’s pale dress is now a harvest gold patterned with large, rich purple sloe-berry spots. Instead of holding a bare spring twig, she wears a crown of autumn leaves and reaches up to harvest the heavy fruit Cicely Mary Barker
