New Zealand Orchid

A commission of a leadlight window design has been completed, showcasing three elegant white flowers of Dendrobium cunninghamii, commonly known as winika, pekapeka, or Christmas orchid, a native New Zealand orchid renowned for its beauty. This commission was created for a client in Seddon who holds a deep admiration for orchids and wanted a piece that would bring this natural elegance into their home. The leadlight technique enhances the petals’ soft white tones, contrasted subtly with green leaves and natural shades of yellow and red to evoke the orchid’s serene habitat.

If you’re inspired by this piece and would love a custom leadlight window of your own, Pauline is available for commissions. She brings an eye for detail and a passion for creating windows that reflect your personal tastes and love for nature’s beauty.
