About the Item

Antique French Pressed Botanicals from Maison des Frères Maristes in Varennes-sur-Alllier, France. Grouping of (20) and many more still available. The pressed botanicals are roughly 125-Years Old and were found in an old French Monastery School that opened in the 1890's and closed several years ago. We have several sets or Pressed Botanical groupings still available in various sizes. When we ship the botanicals we sandwich them between two pieces of plywood to guarantee a safe delivery. "Maison des Frères Maristes" translates to "House of the Marist Brothers". This refers to the community center for the Marist Brothers, a Catholic religious order. The Brothers were dedicated to educating young people, especially those in need, and often operated a school.
