{"product_id":"fern-frond-study-specimen-no-002","title":"Fern — Frond Study (Specimen No. 002)","description":"\u003cp\u003eCollected intact, frond fully extended. Structure follows a central stem with evenly spaced leaflets branching outward in a near-flat plane. Form appears ordered at first, each segment holding its place without overlap.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDrying alters this alignment. Leaflets begin to draw inward along their length, curling at different rates. The frond loses its flatness gradually, taking on a more gathered form. Central stem remains steady while the outer edges shift around it.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCopper adheres first along the stem, then moves outward into the smaller branches. Deposition reinforces the curled state, fixing the variation between leaflets rather than evening it out. Points of connection thicken slightly, while the tips remain fine.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eVariation expected in degree of curl and spacing once set. Original structure remains readable beneath the change.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eMargin note:\u003c\/em\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cem\u003eFresh samples give no indication of the final form. The change only becomes apparent once the process has already begun, and continues until the plating is complete.\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Blood \u0026 Daisies","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53003892916491,"sku":"2025-204","price":15.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0703\/8976\/0267\/files\/2025-204_7.jpg?v=1774718218","url":"https:\/\/www.bloodanddaisies.com\/products\/fern-frond-study-specimen-no-002","provider":"Blood \u0026 Daisies","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
