Twist Rose

Emiko Suzuki is the master of the twist rose. In this book she shares several variations of the rose, including a 5-petaled version, and a variety of bases for the rose, including a square base and a 4-leaf base. There are interesting rose tessellation type models and cranes with roses that use Senbazuru-like slits cut in the paper. Also included are other wonderful models – Apple by Shuzo Fujimoto and a Persimmon variation, boxes and containers, Revealing Flower, Modular Wreath and Snake, Jack-in-the Box Heart, Kissing Lips, David Brill’s Star Container, and more. Color photos show many ways to use and display the roses, such as jewelry, bouquets, container embellishments, and even clothing. In Japanese. 96 pp. PB. (I)
