Our Rosette design is a secret garden come to life, complete with romantic roses, gold highlights, and vintage inspired typography.
“When creating Rosette I was inspired by old world castles and secret gardens,” says designer Lindsy Talarico. “Think dimly lit rooms filled with fresh roses and hidden passageways leading to an overgrown garden blanketed with fog.”
