Product description
Twelve individually handmade botanical linocut prints, delivered to your door once a month. Collect, frame or gift this stunning floriology inspired original art.
At the beginning of a month for a whole calendar year you'll receive a beautifully wrapped handmade print with the flowers which represent that month, with a co-ordinating handmade card illustrating the plant. Collect these for a beautiful botanical display, or give them to friends for personalised birthday gifts as the seasons change.
Floriology is the ancient folklore wisdom which attributes a seasonal flower to each month of the year, with the qualities of each bloom said to be represented in people born in that month.
Throughout history, different cultures have used flowers as subtle symbols in art and even used them to convey secret messages. Greeks, Romans, Egyptians, Chinese, Europeans, and many more all have developed their own language of flowers. Every print comes with an explanation of the symbolism of that particular flower.
Variations
Linocuts are a wonderful way to start an art collection- they are hand printed so are original, unique pieces of art. The tiny variations within each print make them truly unique.
These prints are individually handmade from carved blocks of lino, printed in black ink on Italian cotton rag Amatruda Amalfi paper, and will be sent loose and unframed, or framed in a black wood and glass frame measuring 10 x 12".
Each delivery is accompanied by a beautiful card hand printed from a further linocut carved to represent one of the month's special flowers. Prints and cards are signed, and will be sent flat in a protective envelope, or carefully wrapped in compostable bubble wrap if you choose the framed option.
