Rare antique The Language and Sentiment of Flowers book compiled and edited by L.V. with floral records and selected poetry and a couple of original color illustrations. This is a pocket-sized or mini book with a stunning floral and gold gilt cover and spine.
Includes meanings and poetry for each flower. This book doesn't have a copyright date, but was likely published in the late 1800s. This would make such a memorable gift for a book collector or anyone who loves flowers or poetry.
Due to its age, there is wear and discoloration/browning on the cover, spine, and pages. It looks like one of the blank intro pages was torn out, but all other pages are tightly bound. The book is small and measures about 5" x 3.25" x .5". Please note that photos may appear brighter than actual book.
