Flowers, petals, leaves and other organic materials are pressed until dry and flat, using a variety of pressing techniques. This craft has long been practised as an art form in China and in Japan, where it is known as Oshibana (\u62bc\u3057\u82b1). As early as in the 16th century, Samurai warriors were said to have studied the art of Oshibana as a means of enhancing their powers of concentration and of promoting patience and harmony with nature. Princess Grace of Monaco practised Oshibana and helped promote the art of pressed flowers worldwide.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"><strong>Dr Serina Ha Miu Yin<\/strong><\/span><br \/>\nDr Serina Ha is an expert in media and creative industry.
