Fleurel Pink Watermelon Dahlia Crystal Dome Paperweight

A Dahlia never blooms quietly. It arrives in the world the way great ideas do—layer by layered layer, each petal unfurling with confidence, color, and a quiet kind of pomp. This Fleurel Pink Watermelon variety, captured from a vintage botanical engraving in Ben’s library of curiosities, celebrates the spectacular drama of a flower known for its generosity and its joy.

Handcrafted in our New York City studio, each dome is formed from luminous French crystal, magnifying the Dahlia’s sun-washed pinks, creamy whites, and watercolor-soft gradients so they seem to glow from within. Like the Dahlia itself, it is both tender and strong, artful and architectural, perfectly at home on a desk, vanity, or bedside table.

Dahlias have long symbolized creativity, grace under pressure, and the beauty of showing up fully, exuberantly, and on your own terms. A reminder that the most extraordinary things in life often begin as small, quiet buds.

Each paperweight is signed, felt-backed, and accompanied by a card detailing the time-honored découpage process that brings Ben’s work to life.

A bloom that never wilts—just keeps inspiring.
