From ancient Egyptian lotus drawings to European Renaissance still lifes, depictions of flowers have played a part in nearly every kind of creative endeavor since the dawn of civilization. Their distinctive charisma, ethereal yet powerful, makes them a fitting muse. Whether a bouquet’s bold palette or a peony’s plush texture, florals have provided designers and artists alike with inspiration for their fashion, jewelry, furniture and art creations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Flower motifs are especially apt now, with winter finally gone and the Northern Hemisphere in bloom. In honor of spring, the most transformative season, The Study<\/em> has made 13 perennial picks that showcase florals in unexpected designs.
