Plant informations

Aquatic Algae is a plant with original, unstructured lines that perfectly reflects the light, bringing out all the nuances of its leaves.

In its natural environment, this aquatic plant, like most macro-algae, grows on rocks, shells or other algae. Thanks to its chlorophyll molecules, this plant is able to harness the sun’s energy to grow and multiply. Called photosynthesis, this biomass production process releases oxygen into the atmosphere.

Its intense green color is due to the presence of specific pigments that capture the different colors of light required for its growth, mainly the color complementary to its own. Thus, green algae that need red light for their development tend to grow on the surface, where this radiation is less filtered by the water.

Immersed, as if in weightlessness, in its preserving liquid and presented in an elegant bottle, it invites you to contemplate and let go, to bring you serenity and calm.
