Antique pressed French Botanicals from 1932. We have an extensive collection of Antique French Pressed Botanicals that we purchased from several dealers in the south of France. I have done my best to be accurate with every pressed piece we have. Please read the description carefully. There will be discoloration and some damaged plants. The measurements can slightly vary. This piece is ready to be framed. It comes to you carefully packaged in a cello sleeve backed with a chipboard. Please note that the paper and the botanicals are almost 100 years old; therefore, there may be ripples, discoloration, and some small tears along the edges. Please pay close attention to all detail photos.
