HOT TREND: Say it with flowers Alexander Thurlow Tel: +44 (0)20 8766 6466 www.alexanderthurlow.com/trade One of the beauties of flowers is that there are so many wonderful varieties and colours to be found out in nature and with that there will always be opportunities for Alexander Thurlow’s range of floral jewellery to grow. The company’s latest selection of flora is a romantic bunch and includes Wisteria, Rosemary and pink Roses, making ideal gifts for love, remembrance and friendship.
