James Sowerby Wall Decorations
English, 1757-1822
James Sowerby (21 March 1757 – 25 October 1822) was an English naturalist, illustrator and mineralogist. Contributions to published works, such as "A Specimen of the Botany of New Holland" or "English Botany", include his detailed and appealing plates. The use of vivid colour and accessible texts were intended to reach a widening audience in works of natural history. The standard author abbreviation Sowerby is used to indicate this person as the author when citing a botanical name.

Arts and Crafts Era Coat Rack with Detailed and Deeply Carved Alabaster Tiles
Located in Lisse, NL
Antique and unique wall coatrack with amazing alabaster carvings.
It is not often that you find an antique that is not completely original, but where they have done a great job in creating a, so called, marriage that simply looks beautiful. This handcrafted wall coat rack was made around 1900-1910, but the exeptionally detailed, hand carved alabaster tiles date back to circa 1850-1870. These mis-Victorian works of beauty are hand-carved in deep relief and both the fruits in the vases as the scrolling leaf patterns in the center tile are among the most detailed we have ever seen. All three tiles have no breaks in them and only minor losses. So if you are looking for a unique antique wall rack...
