This is the piece that started it all. Real Bodhi leaves — hand-processed until only their lace-like veins remain — are layered in rings to form a blooming mandala. In daylight the veins look like fine lace; in warm evening light they glow. At 12 inches it is large enough to anchor a shelf or a small wall, and still easy to gift.

How it’s made
Each leaf is processed entirely by hand until only its natural, lace-like vein skeleton remains. Artisans in Vietnam then sort the leaves, color them, and arrange them one by one on a fabric background. Because every leaf has its own shape and size, no two pieces are exactly alike — small variations are part of the charm.
Why the Bodhi leaf?
The Bodhi tree (Ficus religiosa) is the tree under which the Buddha is said to have found enlightenment. Its heart-shaped leaf has become a quiet, widely recognized symbol of peace, awakening and new beginnings — meaningful for Buddhists, and simply calming for everyone else.
