About the Item

Decorative German Botanical Plates of Technical Plants, Complete Set of 12, 1854 This beautiful set of twelve original hand-colored botanical plates offers a timeless and versatile look, ideal for American interiors seeking warmth, balance, and quiet sophistication. Published in Stuttgart in 1854, the prints feature a range of useful and cultivated plants rendered with clean lines and soft, natural color. The plates share a harmonious palette of greens, muted yellows, and earthy tones, making them easy to integrate into both classic and modern spaces. Displayed together, the set creates a strong yet understated wall statement, perfect for libraries, studies, dining rooms, offices, entryways, or long hallway walls. The repetition and consistency give the ensemble a designer-ready feel without being overly formal. Originally created as botanical studies, the prints today function beautifully as decorative wall art. Offered here as a complete and matching suite of all twelve plates, this set is ready to be framed and installed as a cohesive display. It works equally well in traditional homes, contemporary interiors, and layered transitional spaces. Condition Report: Very good condition overall. Light age-related toning and occasional minor spotting consistent with mid-19th-century paper. Colors remain fresh and attractive. Clean margins, suitable for framing. Framing Suggestions: For a polished interior look, frame uniformly in black or dark wood with off-white mats. Display as a four-by-three grid or in closely spaced individual frames for a clean, architectural presentation. Technique: Hand-colored engraving Maker: Dr. C. G. Calwer, Stuttgart, 1854
