“Wow!” was our reaction when we first spotted it. Roselle and coffee is the title a young lady gave it when she saw it in our home. She is spot on! See the shades of roasted Arabica and the red hues of Roselle and be reminded of balmy evenings under a tropical sky. It was just this sort of feeling that this piece gave us - sweet, earthy and strong.

Parting with it because we have less space in our new smaller home is a sad thing for us but if it means it’s going to another home to be further appreciated, we are happy.
