| From AIS Bulletin #201 April 1971 Introducing SILVER YEN-Sdlg. 67-28-A, 36", M. to L. The flower is basically the patina of old pewter, with an infusion of blue and clear green, with an all-over sheen of light grey, thus giving it the silver cast of old silver yens. All petal edges are ruffled and etched in burnished gold which gives it an iridescent glow. Beard is old gold, tipped silvery blue. $25.00. Landsend Iris Gardens. |
