The Language and Sentiment of Flowers Illustrated Victorian Reproduction Book

What we love:
This small antique reproduction book is chock full of information from a time gone by, before the days of overnight shipping & email, when communication between people happened at special occasions especially when folks lived a great distance from one another. For the Victorian letter-writers out West this book represented a new and exotic secret language of flowers from the East. The language of flowers became so popular and specific that a dictionary became necessary.

Using this source the writer could send a simple message of passion & friendship, reproach & quarrel, and a myriad of other sentiments singly and combined in a single bouquet of flowers without ever penning a single word!
