Preserved roses in a box are preserved using a chemical process, typically involving a non-toxic, silica-based solution.
Here's a breakdown of the preservation process:
- The Chemical Treatment: Unlike simply drying or pressing, preserved roses undergo a treatment that maintains their natural look and feel.
- Silica-Based Solution: The roses are treated with a chemical, most commonly a non-toxic solution made from silica. This solution essentially replaces the rose's natural moisture.
- Individual Coating: The solution coats the petals individually, ensuring that the rose retains its shape, color, and soft texture.
This method results in roses that look and feel fresh for an extended period without requiring water or sunlight. They are then arranged and presented in a box, making them a popular gift item.
