Botanical Herbarium in Unique 1970s Metal Frame. UV-Protected

This one-of-a-kind botanical herbarium art features carefully preserved geum, aquilegia, and forget-me-not flowers, set in a rare, vintage metal frame with UV-protected glass. Measuring 30x24 cm (approximately 11.8x9.4 inches), this piece is perfect for adding a touch of nature and history to any space. Now, let me share its story. This special frame is nearly 50 years old and originally belonged to my grandparents. A few years ago, my grandmother gave me a set of these frames, which once held herbariums gifted to my grandfather by his graduate student in the 1970s. My grandfather was a renowned botanist who dedicated his life to studying and preserving forests, even authoring books on forest conservation. These frames, cherished by him, have now been lovingly restored with a fresh black finish, while retaining their unique character. The frame itself is metal, slim, and has a depth of about 5 mm. It’s designed to be disassembled, so you could change the herbarium inside if desired. However, I hope this unique arrangement will be treasured for years. The UV-protected glass helps preserve the flowers from fading, though the glass may have a few light scratches, as it is the original glass from the 1970s – a true testament to its history. Dimensions: 30x24 cm (11.8x9.4 inches). Includes a hanger for easy wall display. Add a piece of nature and history to your home with this exclusive vintage herbarium, framed in a piece that tells a story from decades past.
