Pair of stefana. Wire circular frame wrapped in stiff white string to cover wire. Silvery/white wax stephanotis flowers and fabric leaves begin toward the back of each crown, gradually increasing to the crown-like focus of stacked flowers at the front. Each flower has a white bead at the center surrounded by small (fabric?) pieces to mimic the inside of a flower. A satin ribbon connects the two crowns, tied in a loop where it attaches to each frame.

From wedding of Helen and Michael Mitchell.
