Pressed flowers picture - mounted handmade herbarium made using UK grown Geraniums

Geraniums are an English cottage garden favourite and are also known as Cranesbill because of the shape of the seed pods. These UK grown geraniums are in shades of purple and we pressed them in our Sussex workshop. In this piece of handmade wall art there are three flower stems laid in a row. The pretty Geranium flowers symbolise positivity in the language of flowers. These blooms are 100% natural and so always have small imperfections which is part of the charm. The drying process has naturally turned white to parchment colour and pink to purple. This unique gift is inspired by Victorian herbariums where pressed flowers were used for botanical science. Handmade in Sussex from Geranium versicolor flowers grown in Sussex - see image after union jack heart.

The pressed flowers are arranged on A5 white archival acid-free paper on an A4 sturdy ivory card mount approx 20.7cm x 29.7cm. The frame shown is for illustration only and is not included. Picture requires frame or glass cover.
