Hi!
I just watched the DVD "magic on sea" from Greg Frewin. In one of his routines, he had on his table one green stem with a white silk rolled into a rose. The silk was 24"x24"
Please, could you tell me where I could find that.
best regards

You can make it by adding a traditional rose to silk gimmick on a stem or I could make one up.

Hi Allan:

I haven't seen the DVD, but I'm pretty that Richard is correct. There is an accesory that holds a rolled up silk in position on your lapel - it makes the rolled up silk look like a flower. You simply pull the silk out and you have the transformation.

You can take this little accesory and attach it to a fake rose stem, just like Richard suggested. Personally, I'd have Richard make it for me, but if you want to do it yourself, it's not hard. You can buy the "Flower to Silk" accesory from http://www.nnmagic.com for $10.00 (U.S. dollars).

I hope this helps you.

I use the Norm Nielson Rose to Silk in my stage act. Works very well. In a pinch you can use a straight pin and just roll the silk. Duane Laflin has a rose to silk in one of his silk magic videos but I forget which one.

Hi !

Many thanks for your answers.

Tom Jones of Wild Magic uses M*****s for his Rose on Lapel to silk. Same could be used with a stem. Check out his website for the gimmicks.

There were at least three manufacturers of the long stemmed rose to silk. Norm Nielsen was one of them, but I don't think he does the long stemmed version any more. I have one of the Nielsen long stem versions in my possession. I can't remember the names of the other manufacturers. One was little known and the second was recognizable, but it slips my mind.
