Handwritten names in lovely French and Latin script on a blue and white specimen sheet (perfect for that delft look!). 

Presented in new solid oak wood picture frames with tempered glass with acid free and cold pressed paper backing (behind the original patinated paper). These are original and one of a kind pressed flower specimens from the 19th century – not floral prints. 

Crafted with meticulous care, this botanical press on paper captures the timeless beauty of various plant specimens, frozen in a moment of delicate grace. Encased in an oak frame, the herbarium exudes a rustic charm that seamlessly blends with both traditional and contemporary spaces. The rich, warm tones of the oak complement the earthy hues of the botanical specimens, creating a harmonious visual experience.

Protected by a glass cover, the herbarium invites you to explore the intricacies of each pressed leaf and petal. It's a window into a tangible connection to the world of botany and exploration, from two centuries back. 

The condition is great. Arrives ready to hang. These are one of a kind and what is pictured is what arrives.
