Equisetum is the sole surviving genus of a once great lineage. Horsetail, as they are commonly called, hit their peak during the Devonian Era, some 350+ million years ago. Back then, they comprised a considerable portion of early forests. Much of the world’s coal deposits are derived from these plants. These plants once towered over the landscape, reaching heights of 30 metres or more.

The plastic is pretty flexible but I love the timelessness of old belongings, books, clothing. It has so much life still left in it and has already lived so many.
